(34) Can you keep a secret...teehee...My Magazine Genre PART 1!

Hey guys what's good, anyways we back with another banger epic dope magazine, sorry that's how the cool kids talk, JUST LET ME FIT IN!! Just kidding, anyways I've been looking for some magazines for inspiration, let's go over this one I found

You know what I really like this one, it's even got the color we picked, red, it's energetic so it makes for a great header and grabs attention too!! The fonts are also pretty fancy too, notice how on some parts it's thinner and not the same thickness throughout, that's what we call a modern serif font and they typically look "fancy". Also in this magazine the guy just looks sophisticated while keeping the masculine look so it works great, this will be good inspiration for our magazine, but let's look for some more

Until then, thanks for reading!!

The masthead is the title of a magazine located at the top of the cover page. I used font hierarchy to determine what I wanted the viewer to see first. I called the magazine Menl...

I hope these aren't all flying over your head, anyways let's get back to...work...I MEAN FUN LEARNING!! You believing that right? You said no? Good, I don't wanna pretend, let's get straight to it, today I will be covering the remaining terms I see as critical to understand when discussing the anatomy of page design. So to recap I will be discussing body text, images, and graphics today. Let us begin! Body Text: The body text is basically the main text content of an article or feature within a magazine. This text is typically set in a readable font and size, and is positioned in a way that allows the reader to easily scan and read through the content.
