First I had to decide on a magazine title! Most possibly the hardest thing to do, other than looking for a font! Here are some words I randomly wrote down, hoping to find something inspiring.
A lot of these words are music related, such as Singer, Live and Backstage, which made choosing the words easier. I have chosen these words as they are the sort of genre of words that you would find on a magazine. They are short, sharp and snappy and grab the readers attention.
In the end, however, I chose Elektrodisiac as it is very suitable for my magazine. It is very modern and fits my magazine's genre.
After much hard work, I thought of an idea and began looking for fonts. I managed to get all the possibilities down to a chosen few:
I liked 'Catalogue' and 'Plasticine' as they look modern and young. The sort of font you would find on a magazine, however I do not think they will be suitable for my style of magazine as they are not 'sharp' enough.
'Ogred Weary' was a definite no as it is too stereotypically 'girly'. It would not fit the magazine and would look out of place.
And now to choose my final font!
