Consistency

Consistency is vital when producing a magazine. Consistency makes the magazine all as 'one' which contributes to make the magazine look professional.

 
Looking at my front cover the font for the mast head is different from all the text displayed on the page, this makes the main title stand out. The sell line font is used more than once on the front cover, I have used it for the quote of the artist and the artist names, I think it was a good idea to maintain a same font on the page, else if every piece of text had a different font it wouldn't look professional. The name of the artist however is in a different font, this was chose purposely to make the artists name stand out in bold. 

 

One thing I wish I had changed was the 'LOUD' font on the top of the contents page, for it to be consistent I should of maintained the font of the LOUD on the front cover for the contents page. I think this would the name of the magazine more consistent. However I did maintain the font used on the front cover of the artists name, for all the other artists on the content page. This font was used throughout the contents page, which I thought look professional. 



The font used throughout all of the three pages was maintained, this added consistency and achieve a better 'look'. One thing that was not kept consistent was the colour scheme throughout, however when i thought about changing the colours to make it proper colour scheme I thought that most magazines would have different colours on every, who wants a magazine that is going to look boring? The image of my main artist is used on every page, this signifies to the reader of who they are going to read about.
