Masthead Analysis

Mastheads

What did I create and why?

• I created these simple black mastheads on a white background to fit in the genre of my magazine, which has a; shabby chic and retro feel to it as well as having classy and elegantly polished attributes also.

• All the fonts I used in-keep with my theme as they achieve the look I wish to have, for example through the medieval mystic look of the second masthead shown in the first picture on the second slide, It has the old-fashioned yet classy feel I specifically want.

Audience Feedback

• Through the audience feedback I received it became apparent that my second style of masthead in the first picture/slide was the favoured design. With the first and fourth masthead style coming in at close joint second.

• Then through feedback and peoples opinions I understood that I should possibly add colour to my mastheads, so now; I intend to add a hint of red to the masthead along with the black and white already there to make it pop and stand out more, as well as some more white shadowing, for a better effect and contrast.
