Pre-Production planning

Masthead 

This is an analysis of my magazine name to show the idea behind my name. 

 Font style

I asked my media studies group which of the font designs from above they preferred. This helped me identify what design will attract my target audience as the people in my group are the same age.  

 

This is the design my media studies group preferred. Most of them said that they preferred it because of the I. I do like this design but its not my favourite, I prefer the design below.

 

    I designed some more fonts but this time I combined elements from my favourite with the most popular one,so i like the design myself but am still attracting my target audience. The most popular design from my new font style was the second one. However I noticed some features wrong with it. Firstly I realised that by having both capitals and lowercase letters I am not following a convention of a magazine because usually a magazine masthead only uses one. This also might make my masthead hard to remember because the mixture between capitals and lower case letters may cause confusion. Secondly, by having the E,G and O in capitals it looks like its two words, 'indi' and 'EGO'. I improved the design slightly by changing some elements. 

This is the final design that i may use for my magazine masthead.
