Masthead designs

Venom

“Venom” was the most popular magazine name, derived from the survey. Black and green also proved a popular colour scheme. A shadow has been added to some dimension

Venom

This is a more simple masthead design with no shadow however simplicity is often the best design – shows a sense of professionalism

Alternatively, the colour of the actual magazine cover could be green and the masthead colour could be black. This font style really highlights the meaning of the word venom; it looks snake-like

The masthead design I am most likely to go ahead with is the first one. This is because I prefer the background colour of the magazine to be black and the masthead text to be green. This would stand out more and be more appealing. The first design is simple but still contains an element of dynamic thinking – something that hip-hop reflects very much
