Research and Planning: Three masthead designs


I have been looking at the different fonts that I could use for my masthead on my own music magazine, I have still yet to decide the name of my magazine. The names I have chose underneath are examples I could use but still aren't sure. I experimented with different fonts on dafont.com to try and find a font which would reflect the genre of music in my magazine which is going to be indie/rock. I chose to use red, white and black as I have researched other magazines of the same genre and this colour scheme is what most of them follow.




- The name 'loud' came from looking out my collage and this word stood out.




- 'M magazine', simply stands for music magazine.




- The name 'adored' has come from the lyrics
of a Stone Roses song.

  1. I like your mastheads they look fun and exciting. I can tell what genre it is. I would buy the magazine if it was on sale. It looks very nice

  2. Hi,
    I think your magazine mastheads are really good and different from each other. However, I would recommend the first masthead because I really like the text style and the name 'loud' suggests loud music.

  3. Hello. I think your mastheads are really creative. I like the colour scheme you've used. Red,white and black are the most used magazine colours now. I personally like 'Loud' the best because it stands out and I like the font. I think it would really suit your magazine, I would buy it. :)

  5. You have some really good masthead ideas here! My favourite is probably the top one as I really like the name 'Loud' and I think the font fits in well with it. I also like the colours you have used.
