Just bits and pieces

Today was a day of innovation and creativity. I started thinking about how I want to set up the layout of Made In magazine and what fonts I want to use. I have found some possible fonts to use and have found some possible layouts for my cover. I've been having a difficult time deciding how exactly I want my magazine to look. I have used my inspirations to help decide a model for my layouts.

These are some possible fonts for my masthead.













Im going to continue looking for more but, these are the ones I've have found from 1001fonts.com that I think are pretty cool. As you can tell from my previous posts, my inspirations use simple bold fonts as their masthead in their magazines I assume so as to not draw attention from the cover picture. However, I like the cool hand brushed fonts because they seem unique which is something I want Made In magazine to achieve. I still want the attention to be on the cover picture but, I think I can figure out a way around it. I have asked around and people seem to lean towards the third and the last font. Hopefully, I'll make a decision very soon.

I also need to start deciding which application I am going to use to design my magazine and start playing around with it a little so I am familiar with the application before I start building my magazine. Time to start deciding my layout! Can't wait!

Stay tuned.
