Drafting and planning: investigating typography

I chose E as my favorite because it has robotic writing which matches the main image. I also chose E because its is very indie just like the masthead therefore they match and allow the magazine to look professional. The house colours used allow the main image be focused on because the masthead and cover lines compliment the Christina Aguilera and her robot features  

I chose A as my second favorite image because the cover lines are easy to read and the font is just right. the font and size suit the house style and and allow the magazine to stand out. The font for the cover lines suites and matches the masthead therefore the magazine front cover on a whole looks good and professional.

I chose the front cover C as the second last one because i do not particularly like the style of the font of the cover lines. the font is too thick and blurry and is not easy to read therefore it does not stand out. From this I will take into account that the font i will use shall be clear and bold.

The least favorite cover line was image D because the font is not acceptable it is hard to read and does not suit the house image. The font for the front cover does not match the masthead therefore it does not look professional, this would not be a suitable and appropriate magazine front cover.

Overall from this i have learned what type of font to use and what not to do when i come to create my magazine front cover, from this i know i will not have a font size too big or a font that is hard to read, i will be having a font which suites the masthead and house colours because it will allow the magazine to be more professional.
