The document discusses planning for a magazine, including name options and text formatting tests. It describes choosing the font "FT Nihilist Philosophy" for the masthead in the top left corner, as it makes a bold statement while being easily readable in a graffiti/grunge style. Another font, "SF Sports Night", was considered too wide to fit in the corner, so a central masthead would be preferred, but it would occupy too much space and interrupt the main image.
4. I have chosen to use Font 1
1.
which is: FT Nihilist Philosophy.
I think that the font makes a bold
statement and is easily read but
also given a graffiti/grunge style.
The masthead will be situated in
the top left corner, similarly to
some of the research which I
found from NME and Q
magazine.
I thought that the Font 2: SF
Sports Night, was too wide to fit
in the corner of the magazine, so
2. would be preferred for the
masthead to be central and
spread across the width.
However, I felt that it would
occupy too much space and
would interrupt the main image. I
also feel that the text represents
a more modern, futuristic
magazine, such as one that
would include more Dubstep or
psychedelic music.
