Prelim: Magazine Fonts Moodboard

Image
I have created a moodboard based on different fonts in order to attract my viewer. Although fonts in general may seem as a small compartment on a fashion magazine it is something vital as it creates an image. It allows the viewer to see what kind of image the magazine wants to present and how that can help them in choosing if they would like to read it or not.

In my magazine front cover I used and developed basic conventions such as my masthead and my cover lines however making them add an extra amount of influence amongst the piece. I also considered every part of my mise en scene as I wanted the picture to be the main attraction of the magazine: it is more images based then written based. This made my fashion magazine more sophisticated and reliable building a sense of reliability therefore being treated as if to be   real high end fashion magazine .As I started of initially with my image which was then accompanied with cover lines that linked back to an original theme of rising up and becoming more strong and independent especially amongst young coloured females and that was also shown through my masthead of warrior which added to the sense of power and enlightenment .I also tried many different fonts in order to fit...
