Font ideas


Here is a collection of different font types i gathered off the Internet site Dafonts.com, this website is a font generator website. To find the various fonts i have gathered i typed in key words into the search facilities which relate to my magazine. These were such as 'Indie' 'Rock' 'Punk' and 'Metal' . After doing this i selected several different fonts, some from each key word search. I then presented this information to a group of people are my target audience age range. After looking at them many ruled out the 'Rocket' and 'Hardrock' style instantly stating of how they were difficult to read thus not really very appealing to them. Most also said they had the same problem with the 'Metal lord' font. The rest of the fonts were all generally liked reasonably equally by the interviewees. However many voted to choose between the 'Indie Komiks sketch' and the 'indie star' font would be best as they were more linked to the music genre of the magazine and were of a relaxed and trendy font style. Upon a vote between them two style, the 'Indie komiks sketch' font received the most votes thus i am using this as it is obviously the one that will generally appeal more to my chosen target audience than anything else.
