Font Ideas For Masthead



Here are my idea fonts for my masthead,i asked members in my class on thier opinion on what their favourite font was, the results are shown, with the top font being the most popular, i will use this font on my final design.

Ideas For Mast Head

For my music magazine I need to decide on a suitable name, this masthead needs to stand out to the audience and be unique. By the use of an effective masthead the audience will recognise my magazine.


Beatsy- although I like the name beatsy for my mast head, it sounds more like a masthead for a dance genre rather than r and b. This idea is unique and has a ring to it when spoken.

Affinity- this word means liking or a attraction towards something, this word would be effective on my masthead by proposing that the magazine takes a liking to r and b artists.

Subside-this word wouldn’t be as effective on my magazine because it means die down or decrease which brings a negative feeling upon the magazine. R & B music is located a lot in suburb areas which may link my name to my genre.

Holla- this word springs to mind when my audience view it, holla
is a word used in urban chat meaning hello or attract attention from someone, The name holla for my magazine would therefore attract the audiences attention giving a positive response by them picking it up.

Unorthodox- this word means abnormal and not expected, it would give my magazine a unique name and is different from those already on the market. This idea is a 4 syllable word; the audience may feel like it’s a difficult world to pronounce however it is very unique.

After thinking about my ideas carefully I have decided that Unorthodox will be the name of my magazine. Although it is a lengthy word there is nothing like it already on the market. The word also sounds ‘harsh’ similar to some characters in r&b.

Ideas for Mast

Some of my ideas for my mast magazine are:
- Aim further
- Ace
- Genius
- Biddulph 6

After looking at my ideas i will call my magazine 'Genius' i chose this tittle because it relates to pupils coming away from school confident and with qualifications, as if they were a genius.
