Choosing a Font

I have browsed both the internet and the computer for font that will be used as my masthead. As the name of my magazine is Velvet, this will be the font that presents this title. I will paste below the several fonts that I have selected:






































Once I had selected these fonts, I decided that it would be best to acquire the opinions of my peers, who fit perfectly into my target audience. Therefore, I placed an image into a group conversation on  Facebook with some of these people and requested them to select their favorite option. I will paste screenshots of my results below:


It appeared that the most preferred fonts were the 2nd (Code) and 4th fonts (Vonique 92). Therefore, I inputted them into the image that I'd like to use on my cover and edited them in order to create the appearance of the final product. This is what I produced:



Overall, I particularly liked both fonts for a variety of different reasons. I believe that Vonique 92 appeared to have a diverse feel and added an interesting element to the magazine, however, Code was clear and simple whilst completely fitting the target audience of my magazine. Therefore, I believe that, unless I find something more in favour than my current selection, I will be using the font, Code.
