Masthead &Title Ideas

Magazine Masthead Ideas

• Cornwall Arts
• Creative Cornwall
• Cornwall Creates

Out of this selection I preferred "Creative Cornwall", however I still had to ask my target audience for their opinion therefore I did this by creating a survey monkey that included the question referencing the best masthead for my magazine genre. The responses varied but the most popular choice was "Creative Cornwall". After this decision I had to focus on the right typography for my magazine style so I researched pre existing magazines and worked out that a simple sans-serif font would work with my simplistic layout on the cover.

Within my magazine I have included a double page spread, therefore I had to write an article to feature on the page. I had a few ideas based on the different aspects of my magazine but I resulted back to surfing as this was the main theme running throughout my magazine. I then looked at different surf magazine DPS articles to get inspiration for my own. I decided to look at the different surfing experiences around the work and what it is like to surf whilst travelling, the title I came up with was "Surfing the world" again this would be in a simple sans serif font. I also used a pull quote from within the article which reads "Big waves carry big responsibilities".
