As I want a huge letter in the background behind my star, I firstly started to look for fonts I would want that letter to be. I looked on the website fontcubes and found various fonts I liked, I wrote out the letter I am using in each font so I could copy each one and compare them...
I like the first font as I think it looks quite formal, which suites the fact it’s an interview and would suite the photograph I am using also. Plus I think that the two sides of the A being different sizes (one thick/one skinny) adds more excitement to the letter and stops it looking boring. The red used in it however adds a slight informality to it, which is what I said I’d involve in my magazine – formality and informality. The red will also suite the photograph.
When I put the second font against the rest of them it just didn’t seem to stand out for me, personally I feel it looks too boring and wouldn’t suite the double page spread or the photograph I put in front of it as my star looks very stylish and blemished and this is not the vibe I get from this font.
Although I think this font is a nice, I don’t think it would give the effect I want it to give. Similar to the last font, it is very square and basic-although it does have some elements that are different and more exciting than the last one-I just don’t feel it would be the font I want, I feel it looks too bold and thick, whereas I want something that would stand out however is still quite elegant.
I like the last one, as it’s similar to the first; the font looks quite formal and elegant which matches the photograph. The only fault I would say about this font is it may be too thin to have in the background therefore would not stand out the way I wanted to.
In conclusion to this all, I have decided to choose the first font simply because it will suite my double page spread best and out of all of them it stood out to me the most
