Typography: Font Types
- How many of them are designed with a serif font type, and how many with a San's serif font type?
one of the fonts is a sans serif and two of them are serif font types
- Why do you think there are many more of one type than the other?
I think that gaming is a more modern activity so it's usually the younger generation that does it. as such using sans serif which is newer would likely appeal to them more
- What are the connotations of those font types?
Origin Tech Demo- seems more techie than the other. If someone saw this, they would most likely think that this article or game is cutting-edge with the best things to offer.
Glitch inside- seems like it was made for kids. when I see it, I can't help but thinks about 3-d movies.
God of War- seems like the oldest of the three. enough though it has a sans serif font I feel as though this is something for the older generation of gamers.
After deciding on what type of magazine I wanted to create I need to pick to font to would match it. my first two options were Glitch Inside and Origin Tech Demo. These two fonts give off a cyber technology vibe. They are also very appealing to the eyes which could draw in viewers just based on the design. The third option was God of War I chose this because the font was designed based on a famous game. It was my hope that gamers would see the design and instantly recognize it, which would make the want to buy it.
