Font& Colour Scheme Analysis.

I chose these fonts because I thought they would best fit a rock magazine. Ones I especially like are the ones that have a black background behind the lettering, like the second one down, I find them to be big and very striking and I also like how they are mainly all capital letters. Out of all of them my least favourite would be the third one down as to me it is the least rocky font and it doesn't catch my eye, so I doubt any readers would find the font very striking. One of the fonts I do like is the fifth one down to me it looks like it should be on a magazine, however one problem I do have is that I have seen this font used on a lot of music related products, for example "Guitar Hero" so for that reason I doubt I would use it on my magazine. A lot of the small fonts look really good like six and seven, however it wouldn't fill the space very well, and really my final font should be big and really use up the space well, as it will be the font representing my magazine. My favourite out of them is defiantly the second from bottom, I like it as it is different and the way the letters are all presented, one in black, and some letters are more together than others. It emphases the rock better than other fonts which is what I wanted, because rock to me needs to be presented as a heavy hard hitting word, as that is what the magazine is about.
