Task 9
- 2. Current Fanzines To create my own fanzine I need to look at current fanzines that are for the same sort of music that I will be the same sort style I wish to create as my final product. As its for the same sort of subculture so to use this sort of style of black and white seems like the best option for me to follow but using my own ideas to expand on areas covered by these.
- 4. Fonts
- 5. Images
- 6. For my first Fanzine design using my own Fanzine that I have written myself I designed starting with a black ground seemed like the best style for it and have white writing, after deciding this looked at how I was going to spread out my text in a way that I felt would suit a punk fanzine and having it split into three different sections in a font that I feel looks like stylistic handwriting I feel is the most appealing I could make the text loo and have it fit in with the style of fanzine I'm creating. Originally I had the title across the top but I felt it would look better somewhere else and I used a standard font so I looked again o find one that would relate to the house style and used that as my heading for this text and then rotated the text to go up the side of the page. For the images that I included I used band icons from this type of music I felt they would be most relatable for this and so by incorporating them it started to look like a fanzine for this subculture, I didn’t want colour on the page just black and white so I only used icons that would suit the page and make it look most appealing, adding some behind the text and some on the edges of the page but each also faded out to make it look as though images were on there first and the text added on top.

- 7. Fanzine 2 For my second fanzine i used the same idea as my first having a black background with white writing as it makes the text look more bold and stand out more and to me makes it more appealing I changed the font for the text but I kept the title’s font the same as I feel I there isn’t better fonts that I feel would be more appealing. I had seen a layout that’s very similar to how I have layed mine and I felt I should try it with having two main text boxes and a main picture in the middle and for what I have does I felt that it worked well, I started my text before I had even written my title as fanzines there's no start and finish it can be layed out how ever and so just changing little things like that can affect your perception of the whole fanzine and it works well for mine. The picture that I sourced from the internet works well within this as the text is about punk fashion and this is a punk symbol that has been stitched onto some denim and so fits in with the topic which is key when putting in imagery.
