Front Cover Sketch - Final Layout

Font Experiment Front Cover

I decided to look into the fonts I could use for the title of my magazine, this also meant I had to think of a title, something simple and catchy that also suited the type of music magazine I am going to create. At first I just decided to look at the fonts the InDesign programme offered. Not changing the colour or shape of the title, I decided on the letter M as I felt it made an impact.

Following this I decided to look at these fonts again changing the colours and look of the font and style.

From this I then chose my final font for the front cover.

Front Cover Layout Hand Sketches

Once I had taken my photographs I felt I needed to think about how I could lay these out on the page alongside a title text and other magazine conventions.
The best way to do this was by quickly sketching and seeing what I and my peers preferred.

After thinking about the amount of space and look on the eye I decided that the circled design may best fit the type of magazine I wanted to produce.
