test fonts explained

From my research I discovered that most people feel the title of a magazine needs to be very clear and easy to read. Therefore in my magazine I feel it’s very important to choose the right font that fronts the title of magazine. I also need my font to mirror the style of the magazine in this case indie. My title of the magazine is NWAM (new world alternative music.)

I feel that font 2 (Copperplate Gothic Bold) on my test sheet is an ideal font to front my magazine as it’s bold and clear to read and understand. I also feel that the font looks in a way quite new as it is angular and sharp therefore reflects a key part of my magazine, new indie music as the font looks new and clean. I also like how the font as the slight flicks at the top and bottom of the letters. I feel these flicks help the title to not look to bold therefore imposing, as they make it seem a little more natural like handwriting. 

I also like font 3 (Invers SF) as I feel it would front my magazine very well for use in the title. I feel the font almost gives the impression of an old newspaper something that i feel would appeal to an indie audience who I have found like things to be a little different and sometimes a new interpretation of things from the past. The font is also very easy to read and because of the different thicknesses of the lines each of the letters seem to flow into each other. 

Overall I feel i might try and mix the two fonts together or at least use each of them somewhere in the magazine. However if this is not possible I will use font 3.
