Font Ideas and Magazine Name.

For the magazine name my first thought was to use Green Day lyrics
e.g. Batteries Are NOT Incld, Zip Gun on Parade, Beating Out of Time
because I want to use their album artwork style as a theme in my
magazine but I then thought that unless a reader knew Green Day well
they might not see the connection and relevance so I have decided to
use words that relates more widely to punk and protest music.

The alternative options that I have come up are: Anarchy, Rebel,


Spray Can and Disorderly. I like Spray Can but I think it might give
the impression that it is an art magazine. The idea for Anarchy and
Disorderly came from the typical associations with punk and anti-
establishment music. I got the idea of Rebel from Shepard Fairey’s
work with OBEY.

anarchy spray can rebel - This font is called Sex Pistols and
is well recognised so it is likely to stand out and draw in fans. I
love the mix-match of the letters.

aNaRcHY - I don’t think this font is as effective as Sex


Pistols, it looks too cartoon and child-like.

ANARCHY disorderly - I like this font but I don’t


think it reflects the meaning of the words as well as others.

Anarchy Spray Can Rebel Disorderly - I like the


military stencil style of this font.

disorderly anarchy - I really like this font it has


the feel of a worn away military stamp.

Disord3rly - I like the backwards E on this font. It also


links to my theme really well.

ANARCHY Rebel - This font looks too clean and nice to


reflect meaning of the words.

 - I like the


sprayed stencil effect of this font but it’s quite hard to read.
Spray can rebel anarchy - I think this font looks to
cartoon like to go with the theme.

disorderly spray can - I like the ripped, worn down


effect of this font, it reminds me of police mug shot boards with
the horizontal lines.

rebel spray can - I like the freehand sketchy style of


this font.

ANARCHY DISORDERLY - Even though it


has the dripping effect that I like this font is too Halloween-like
to fit in with my theme.

REBEL ANARCHY - I love the scratched paint


style of this font.

spray can anarchy disorderly - I love the raw


sketchy style of this font, it looks like as though it could be
etched into wall in anger.

disorderly REBEL - I think this font looks too hip-


hop style which might confuse the audience so I’m not going to use
this one.

spray can disorderly - I love this font and it fits


in well with my theme but I think I would use if for the puffs etc
rather than the main font.

I am going to go with Slammer tag offshore banking business PUNK


the battle continuez aspossible fonts for my masthead and main font.
I have decided to use the name Rebel for my magazine because it is
short, to the point and gets across the punk, anti-establishment
theme of the music.
