Experimenting with Fonts

Our Chosen Font
All of our fonts were chosen and download of the website 'www.dafont.com'.

We have chosen this font because we think that it fits in well with the album cover. It is nice and simple but I think that it is very effective too. It stands out well against the light background and I wanted the audience to be attracted to the name of the album and our star. I wanted to position the title in the middle where it is easiest to see it and the name of our artist at the bottom where it doesn't stand out as much. I think that having the name of the artist not stand out as much is quite a good idea due the fact that our typical fans will know who the star is as he is on the front cover of the digipak. The font we have chosen is called 'Nixie One'.


This font is called 'Sketchy Times'. I liked this font however I don't think that it is bold enough and I wanted the font to stand out so that it could be read well from a distance and I wanted it to be eye catching.

This font is called 'Amplify'. I think this font stands out effectively however I don't think that it fits in with the album cover very well. I also don't like that it is in italics. I think that the lower case letters look good but the words 'Jeffrey James' in upper case letters is quite hard to read and looks a little too fancy.


This font is called 'Simply Square'. I like this font however I think that is a little bit too bold and I didn't like the fact that you could only have upper case letters.

This font is called 'Road Movie'. I didn't like this font very much because I think it is a little too bold, it also doesn't fit in with the cover very well. I also again, didn't like the fact that you could only have upper case letters. I think that the words and letters are too spaced out as well.



This font is called 'Riesling'. I didn't like this font because it is really small and isn't very bold at all. I also don't like the font in capitals as all the letters are really squashed together.
