Font Mood Board


This is my font mood board which i will use to decide what font i am going to be using. The first font i like a lot but i don't think this would be appropriate for using for the whole feature page because of the long lettering. This would be maybe used for something like sub headings and qoutes in my magazine. The next one isn't something i would use because i think it's too common and a bit plain. The next two fonts, 3 and 4, aren't good font's to use in my magazine. I don't like either of them so i wouldn't be using them. Number four would only be okay to use if i used it for the title but i'm not because it's still too complicated. The 3rd one is too complicated and hard to read for anything also it's not one that fits into my target audience. The 5th one would be more suitable one to use for the feature page because it is quite simple and not over the top. I like this one a lot and i will be considering using this in my magazine most probably in the feature article page. Number 6 is far too busy to be used anywhere in my magazine i do not like it because i think it looks far too childish to use because the drawing texture it seems to have. Number 7 is very simular to the other one i was going to consider but slightly thicker. When doing my feature page i will have to test these two out to make a pick at what one i will be deffiantly using. Number 8 would be for the same use as the first one. I am also caught up on which ones to use for sub heading and etc. So when writing them i will test out which ones would be the best by seeing what looks better on my pages.
The next thing i done on my Font Mood Board was to test out font sizes. A few at the beggining are far to big for text on my feature or contents page. The largest one may not be big enough to be used as a size for the title so the first few will not be used. From about size 36 to 18 these ones are more relevant to my magazine. 36 or 30 could be used for qoutes and little headings and the 18 could be used for the actual feature page text because i think that will be a suitable size to fit all of the information and interview on. Anything below the size of 18 is far too small to be used on my magazine meaning readers will have a difficult time reading it. The sizes of 36 to 18 will be tested out when making my magazine.
