Fonts

Due to coronavirus school was cancelled and I have to complete my magazine at home. When I begun the at home process, all of the fronts I chose on the computers at school were not available on my computer. Fonts play a huge role in the overall look of the magazine and I was really upset that I had lost the fonts from school. Then, I spend about an hour and a half analyzing all the available fonts on my computer (which were just NOT that good but its fine) and I was playing around with the page I had with the most words at the moment, and figured out a good look. For the title on the cover page I am now using the font Impact, which is very bold and thats what caught my attention. I thought the bold title would be good to attract a younger audience. The only thing I did not like so much was the spacing of the letters so i spaced them out more and also stretched out the letters. Then for all of the headings Im using the font Phosphate, which is all caps and bold and thick and has an inline in each letter. The line in the letters is what caught my attention in this font and I also thought it would be a good font for more of a younger audience . For all of the numbers on all the pages I used Impact since it was bold and easy to read. Lastly for the text font I used the font Copperplate. This font took me a while to find because I was not sure if I liked how it was all caps, that meant everything would be in caps. But, I placed the font in all the boxes on that page and I didn't hate how it looked. Even though the font is all caps, the letters are all very small and one hight. They were also spaced very close to each other so I expanded the letters spacing and made them a little taller and wider. This made the font a lot easier to read due to it being so small. After I fixed the letters, I didn't think that the font would look better since it was in all caps like the other one was. But the letters were still very small the font is not too overwhelming.

If we still were at school, I would not have ran into this issue but it was not that difficult to fix. There are man other worse things that could've happened like having to start over completely. But luckily I spent time looking through them and finding ones that can flow really well together and help attract my target audience along with fitting the theme and look. I am not disappointed with the way all of the fonts look together and I think that it will create the look and target the right audience.
