planning - headlin fonts

I knew that the article seen on the front cover would have to simple to allow easy reading to the reader, but also bold to allow the readers eye to fall on the articles, therefore engaging them into the magazine.

I liked the first font as it was bold and therefore eye catching. It was also a simple design, to ensure that the reader would easily be able to read it. The font would also work extremely well with the masthead that had been chosen for the front cover. It also the sort of font which other R&B magazines use on their font cover, therefore instantly telling me that this sort of font works well on a front cover. However, I do think that this font can look quite childish.

The second font was very similar to the first, but was a thinner design. I liked this as like the first would catch the readers eye instantly, due to it being a bold font. Unlike the first due to a slight change in the font, it is not childish, but looks aesthetically pleasing and would look and work well on my front cover.

The third font is completely different to the other font I have chosen. I have chosen this font as I thought it was different and would draw the eye of the reader, as well it for it being bold and it being in upper case. However, after looking again and looking at the masthead font I have chosen, I believe that it will not work well with the rest of my front cover.

The fourth font like the other is bold and eye catching, ensuring that the readers eye will instantly be drawn to the articles within the magazine. However like the third font after putting it with my mast head I do not think that it will work well on my front cover. I also do not think that it reflect the R&B industry which is a great negative toward the font.
