1. When starting to design my mast
head I decided I wanted ‘The’ to be
smaller than ‘Bromley’ and
‘Bromley’ to be smaller than
‘Noise’, I also wanted the
background to be blue. I made the
letters black as I thought they stood
out.
When developing my ideas, I
decided that the words needed to be
thicker, and that I should put ‘The’
on its side, I also made it capital
letters to see if it looked right,
however I decided I didn’t like it
with capital letters, I also thought
this design looked a bit boring and
bland.
When creating my final design, I made
‘The’ in small case letters except for
the ‘T’, I also made the ‘Noise’ in red
to stand out, and I made the background
two different colour blues, to make it
more interesting, I thought I could
merge the two blues together, so there
is not such an obvious change between
the two colours.
2. After drawing my designs, I then went on to photoshop and began to create my mast
head. I first put the words in ‘The’ and ‘Bromley and found a font I liked, after searching
through a few I came across ‘book antiqua’, I liked it because it stood out and was more
modern than some other fonts. I then put the word ‘Noise’ in and made it bigger, and
red, I made it the same font though, because I thought it would not look right otherwise. I
then made the background I used to two different blue colours and tried to merge them
together so from the bottom left corner to the top right corner it goes from light blue to
dark blue. I like my mast head, as I think its quite bold and stands out, however I think it
may be slightly too big. However I will see when I put it on my newspaper.
