23.01.17 - Weekly Update

The cover star reveal! I finally chose someone to portray an artist for my magazine, creating a backstory which lead to an entire Prezi pitch about her and my entire magazine. Working on this took a while because I needed to decide and finalise aspects for my magazine like the name, font and colour scheme. That was everything I done last week. Byeee!

Finalised Masthead

Below is my final masthead name for my magazine. Looking at all of my fonts i found that this was the font that appealed and portrayed a sophisticated yet fun style. Using the crown from a different font and the colourful lines from my colour scheme to create another aspect of my name to make it stand out. 

Magazine Pitch

As you can see below is a prezi presentation i have created, which I will be using for my pitch for my chosen music 'artist'.

Cover Star Reveal



Masthead Fonts

Below are 10 different fonts which i am considering for my pop music magazine masthead:

 

 

Idilica :

This is a sans serif font which is quite thin and enlarges some letters, I like the simplicity of this font however it is not very bold for a masthead and may look out of place if it were to be on a front cover.

Park Lane NF:

Slightly bolder, I like this fonts uniqueness/style however it does not look like it would be seen on a stereotypical pop magazine front cover.

Street Cred:

This font is quite dynamic and bold, aswell as it being easy to read overall seems like a well suited font for my magazine.

Tostada:

Looking at this font initially it is a simple style aswell as it also being bold therefore perfect for a pop magazine as you would want it to stand out instantly. The unique style of the 2 lines to make up the letters is a good aspect.

Budmo:

This is style is formed from looks like pop art with the circles filling up each letter which makes it perfect for a pop magazine as it looks like a fun font.

Basic Title font:

Simple but effective this font creates a sense of sophistication which is what my target audience said they would like to see through-out a magazine.

The Next font:

 Quite bold and almost cartoon like this font would be good as a simple masthead on the front cover of a magazine as it is also easy to read and recognise from a distance.

Dolce vita, Marbre sans, Arual:

These fonts are all similar as they very simple but effective with aspects of geometric shapes making up the letters to keep it looking modern and sophisticated.

 



16.01.17 - Weekly Update

This week i finalised everything and decided on my colour scheme and then using a website called dafont i need to find 10 different fonts and decide on the one that best fits my magazine. I have also come up with 7 different masthead names which i have chosen my final one to be 'Unplugged'. Then thinking about my cover star for my magazine i have began to create a prezi which showcases the back story and somewhat of an introduction to the artist that will be the face of my magazine. Deciding things like the photoshoot and what i would want the individual to represent as a main image on my pop music magazine. That was mostly everything i put towards my front cover magazine. Check next week for more updates. Byeee!

Below are the following which i am considering:

-Pop Reign
-Liberate
-QP
