Whilst in the process of taking new photos, i decided to get on with my font development for the front cover. This would mean for me, deciding what the title looks like:
Shown to the left here is my first collection of fonts. The first thing i needed to do was create loads of different fonts in order to decide which ones i would develop further.I uses a range of fonts and colours in order to decide. As you can see, i used a range of plain to complicated fonts in order to get a great variety of titles i could choose from. The fonts that are in red and pink are the fonts that stood out for me which is why i decided to develop most of them further.
Shown to the right, is my next stage in the development of my title. I choose 3 or 4 different fonts that stood out to me and tried to develop them using stroke and colour features. Although i needed to think about the colour... here, i tried to concentrate more on the font style as i believe that is more important for a title. In the end, i choose the font 'Annie BTN'. I choose this font as i thought it looked rather artist and it was the font that stood out for me throughtout the process.
To finalise my decision on the font, i just needed to choose the font and stroke size. Shown here is my research of this. I looked at the colours i thought would look best as a title. The stroke size was the main focus of my titles as i wanted to affectivly use two colours and make the title bold and demanding. Looking through the colours, i decided i definatly wanted to use black as i knew it would stand out against any other colour. However, i needed to decide whether the black would be the main colour of the writing, or the outlining colour. Eventually, i came to the decision that i wanted it as my main colour and that i wanted a light purple as the outline. Shown below is my final design enlarged.
