Font Research

Today I will looking at fonts. I have been on the website http://www.dafont.com/ and collected five style of font that mightbe sutable for a metal magazine which is my genre.  The STARCRAFT font is blocky and serrif although they are hard to tell due to the letters nearly being joined. In Dafont the font was under space theme which would work with a theme of space in my cover which many metal bands have done with there albums recently. The BLACK FAMILY font is more gothic and is a decorative font with serrifs. I chose this font because many metal bands from research use gothic writing on their work because that is the target market they are attracting however i am not attracting the gothic market. The METAL CRUSHER font is very simalar to "Metal Hammers" mast head font which is good because I am trying to attract a simalar target market to "Metal Hammer" The font looks violent and painfull with spikes as serrifs and the points for letters. The MODERNA font is a script font which is sans serrif. While it might not look like metal it looks simple and is easy to read which may make a good normal font to use as text. The PIRATES, font may be of some use to me if I choose the genre of Pirate metal which is starting to take off in the world of metal. I like how it reflects the theme and and looks rather metal aswell.

Contents page anaylis.

This contents page particually caught my eye when I was searching through the internet for my anaylis material. This contents page has some really good features which I could incororate into my magazine. The usage of pictures with the page numbers on is a particually intresting feature while it is done better in my magazine research slideshow with a Kerrang Greenday magazine. I like the pugs dotted around the page since they stand out more than on covers of magazines. I dont really like the fact how the content hasnt got the pages for the extra content.
