I am now starting to think about the style of the writing for my magazine name. It needs to be young, and fresh with character. The title is going to be black. My original thought was to use Graffiti, however, after researching more into it I think the outcome will be very different.

Zapfino - I like this style of writing, its bring the old to the new. However, I don't think this would work for the style of the magazine name as I feel the mast head has to be much bolder.

Synchro LET - I really like this font, its looks good and I think would work well with my style. Gas - This font is similar to Synchro LET but more dots and bolder. I really like this and am sure that I was consider this as my mast head.

Soft Sugar Plain - This font reminds me off felt tip pen, even though I like this font, I don't think it work as well as other fonts. However, it could work if my magazine genre was art.

School Houseprinted A - I really like this font, its very different and reminds me of a music piece's stats.

Prince Town LET - This font is bold, simple and in your face, this is what I am aiming for. However, I find this font style more like 'High School Musical', too comical.

PortagolTC TT - This font is very in your face and I feel that its a style that would be remembered. However, it seems slightly gothic to me, which isn't the style I am looking for.

Painty Paint - I love this font, its funky and could be very memorable for the reader. However, it has very similar style to Soft Sugar Plain, very arty.

Handwriting - Dakota - This font screams out to me; fun, life .. NOISE. I love this font! However, I feel it is not very bold, and wouldn't be noticed very well.

Graffiti - This font style is very fun and young. Hence, the name 'Graffiti', its young and fresh. Its the new art this decade, and I feel this would be a great font for my 'new' magazine. However, the font doesn't reflect my style of the magazine very well. But I could have it to contrast the plain, black and white approach.

Distortia - This font is very bold and I feel could be an unforgettable style as it is very in your face. However, I feel that it seems to be more gothic and terror. This could be used if I was doing a Rock/Gothic/Emo genre magazine, however, I am not. Therefore I don't think it is very appropriate for my magazine mast heading even though I am keen.

Copperplate - I really like this lettering because it is all capitals except with a larger capital for the first letter. It looks very classy and grand, this could make my magazine much superior to my original design. However, I don't think it is a style which many young people would look at and love it.

Academy Engraved LET - I like the way there is parts of the letters where you can see the background, as then I could have an image behind the mast heading yet still the heading is clear and bold. I feel that the font could be bolder, however even if the font was grander I don't think this would catch my audiences eye as it seems very old fashioned.

After contemplating the good and bad parts of each text, I have finally come to the decision of which font I am going to use for my mast heading and sub heading. I feel that my decision represented my aim well, which was classy and fun.
