Typography Analysis

The Q title is very simple. As it is only made up of one letter it is hard to decipher whether it is Sans-serif or just Serif. This does help the magazine represent all different types of genre as athe magazine does as it is not very specific. The colours also go together well as the red background makes the white writing stand out. 

Kerrang!'s title is made up of Sans-Serif font. All of the font is in capitals and it has a very hard feel about it. The edges of the title are eroded which gives it a worn look. This all links to the genre of music which kerrang! represents which is heavy rock music. This is because the font could be construde as in your face which is a typical element of this genre.

 

The type of font Mojo is written in is Sans-serif. The font also looks slightly 3D due to a shadowing effect on the font. The font is white which brings out the white in other areas of the cover. The title is subtly bold which reflects the classic rock genre the magazine represents.
