Font Choices

Text Font 1

This font, "Kozuka Gothic Pro EL" is basic and easy to read and is therefore appropriate for this magazine. However, it may be too simple, resulting in the magazine not having a unique style.

Text Font 2

This font is called "Kothica" and is a simple and bold font, making it easily readable. However, due to the heading's and sub-headings also being in bold, it is likely that it may look out of place.

Text Font 3
This font, "Grenoble Light SF" is still basic and simple to read, yet is slightly more unique to other fonts used in music magazines. This is th font i am most likely to use, as it is bold, readable and looks effective.

Sub-Heading Font 1
This font, "Blippo Light SF" is a possible font for the sub-headings of my magazine. I like this font as it is unique, bold and eye-catching. It's visually dynamic so makes the magazine mroe attractive.

Sub-Heading Font 2

This font is called, "Firenze SF," I like it as it is more different than a basic font, however is still simple and readable. On the other hand, i don't think i'll use this font, as it is similar to the text font i have decided to use, and therefore the two fonts wouldn't compliment each other.

Sub-Heading Font 3

This font, "Footlight MT light" is unique and different, yet also readable, bold and simple. However, for the task i have been set i don't think this font would be appropriate and think it would better suit a newspaper.

Heading Font 1
This font is bold, and eye-catching. It is called, "Basic Sans Heavy FM" and would be effective in grabbing the attention of the reader. However the font isn't extremely visually effective and therefore wouldn't help the magazine look more attractive.

Heading Font 2

This font, "Ed Gein" is effective in suggesting a rock genre of the magazine, as the distressed look suits the distressed style of rock music. However, i don't want a font that suggests a specific genre, and this font is also similar to the style that is used for Kerrang! magazine, therefore wouldn't succeed in making the magazine individual.

Heading Font 3

This font is called, "Hand of Sean" and looks as if it has been hand-written. I like this font, as it is unique and bold, and therefore would grab the reader's attention. However, i don't like the hand-written effect and thinks it looks unprofessional, resulting in this font being unlikely to be used.


Heading Font 4
This font, "Adobe Heiti std R" is put with a black and white background. I like this font as the colours contrast to make the heading bold and eye-catching, yet the font is still readable. This is the font i am most likely to use as i think it is unique and will be appropriate for the style of the magazine.
