This is a collection of the type of fonts/ masterheads that inspire me, I am going to break down the magazine fonts into categories and will talk about why i chose these Master heads.
Most interesting/ different:
I thought the font for Vice magazine was one of the most interesting and original, mainly because the font itself is transparent, that way neither the image or the masthead is covered. It also looks graphite inspired through it shape, this gives it an urban edge, implying that the magazine is aimed at a younger crowd , yet it is not as intense and colourful. It is simply placed on the left side of the magazine, unlike most magazine masterheads which are placed in the middle.
The most simple:
I chose the mastheads for Bullet, Monu and The Whitepepper, because of their simplicity and boldness. Bullet and Monu are quite similar in terms of their layout, they are both placed above the image, which the features all gathered underneath and just above the image. I especially likes this layout because it was neat and structured. Whitepepper magazine is slightly different, the masthead is in a bold font aswell, yet it is placed across the image. Yet combined with the image and minimal features, it still maintains its simplicity.
Simple but different:
I thought Indie and Dansk magazine were also quite simple but with a twist. Dansk magazine uses a technique, where they flip their letters, and have a thin borderline that from either side of the masthead around the edge of the cover, this gives it a rich, espensive look. Whereas indie magazine is less refined and more edgy due to the scribble across the masthead.
