Typography is the set font used by magazines to link in with its own conventions, Eg kerrang use a mast head were it is smashed and bold, this is representing rock music.
In class today we looked at over 10 different magazines and compared and contrasted why they have used their typology. For example Q uses red as their mast head, their initial title is simple but effective since its red and this stands out to your eye instantly. After researching and looking into the magazines Red and Yellow seem to be the most effective since they are the stand out colours.
After this research i have decided that i will be using 4 colours throughout my magazine cover, which will be red, white, yellow and black. I have now also looked into fonts that i will use for my cover, since my genre will be dance music i am going for a funky relaxed font. This is the mock up i have done this lesson as a draft and to see how my colours collide.
