Masthead - Final Choice




I have decided that this will be my final choice for my masthead. I have used the font style "All Over Again" from the website Dafont. I chose this font because it looks slightly messy yet it is still readable. I think that this font links in well with the genre which I am doing as on most alternative magazines - the masthead has slightly messy writing. In addition when something is messy it can look harsh - and the word "Infectious" sounds like a negative word so this links together. Furthermore the font uses san serifs which can make the font more modern looking. I used the colour red because it is eye-catching. The colour red can imply danger and because the genre alternative can be seen to have a harsher beat and sounds quite negative at times. I chose the word "Infectious" because it sounds quite harsh on your tongue and that can reflect the style of music. I also chose that word because when I asked people about what name to use - it got the most votes. As the word sounds harsh, this means it can grab the audiences' attention - meaning that they would be more likely to remember my magazine.
