This week in class we began researching the reasons why mastheads add such a touch to magazines. Fonts are essential for presentations. The texts are made better by the fonts. It aids readers in understanding the text's information. Your target audience might be drawn in by using the right color, font, and text size choices. Moreover, a masthead identifies the site and page and provides users with identifying information.








This magazine title displays a very bright color palette. It shows a glowing yellow on the top. The font type here is Serif and it seems that there might be bold on the letters. I chose this masthead because it can be similar as the one I want, though in a different color.













For this masthead, the masthead is bland in some type of way. It is a very plain white and is not as large as the other masthead shown before. The font type here is Sans Serif and is bolded. I believe I chose this masthead because I am not sure on which font to use, and when comparing both Sans Serif and Serif, there is a great chance I might do this one.






Sans Serif:


1. Osaka Sans Serif

2. Go Come Sans Serif

3. Advanced Sans Serif 7

4. Sans Serif Shaded

5. Vazari Sans Serif


Serif:

1. Bau serif

2. Serif adow

3. UA Serifed

4. Singa Serif

5. Kisha Serif


After closely examining each fonts believe that my two top choices, one from Sans Serif and one from Serif are here below. Advanced Sans Serif 7 attire ted me because of the 'skinny' letter type and I just personally like the format. Although, Kisha Serif is the opposite. Bold, thick letters with a different touch on the font.


Advanced Sans Serif 7

Kisha Serif
