One thing all the mastheads above have in common are that they are all bold and are all the biggest on the front page, they stand out from the rest of the magazine. They either overlay or are an underlay to the main cover image. I like these mastheads because they are contrasting and are bold colours.
Dafont Font Examples:
I like the fonts because they all fit into my target audience of teenagers, this is because the style and look of them look more interesting than ones you would see on a newspaper or a magazine that aims at older people. My favorite font is the 'Urban Jungle' font as it features a cities skyline on the bottom of the text, and because this magazine is about events around Sheffield, the skyline effect on the text seemed like a good idea.
These are my three masthead designs, my favorite edited font is the top one (referred to as the 'Amateur' font) this is because it's simplistic whilst remaining a bit more stylish than normal text, it's also easy to read, I feel like I would of used the 'Urban Jungle' font if I hadn't of used the stroke effect around the outside. I chose the colour Gray for the masthead as it isn't too dark and it isn't too light, and can contrast well against most colours.

I want my main cover image to look something like these because the main article is about a card game tournament, and these people in the photos are holding the cards and I want the photo be like the btoom image mostly because you can clearly see the cards, and he is in a medium close up, which I want my main cover image to be.
