PRELIM TASK:Masthead Font Ideas

Here are 4 fonts that I considered using for my masthead. I didn't like the first font due to the fact that it looked too bold and bulky and I thought that it didn't compliment my theme and it wouldn't engage my target audience. I liked the first font because it had an outline but it didn't look good with my theme. Secondly, I chose another font which was a little smaller compared to the first font and personally, I really liked it because in my opinion, it suits my target audience and because also relates to my theme. At first, I had decided to use the third font however, when I put it on my cover, it was hard to get rid of the white background behind the font and when I used the magic wand tool, my masthead was also getting rubbed out. I didn't like the last font as I thought it looked too simple and it wasn't eye-catching or engaging. When I was thinking of masthead names, I came up with 'Inception' and at that time, I didn't realise that this was the name of a very famous movie yet I decided to keep this masthead as inception is the meaning of a new beginning and this links well with my theme and target audience as the new sixth former's are starting afresh. My final decision was font 2 which is highlighted.
