This is my first Masthead idea, which encompasses the name "Airwave" for my magazine. For this, I have chosen to use a Sans Serif font with an image of a wave behind it. This was strategically placed behind the "Wave" part of my Masthead, to really play with the imagery. A smaller font was used to create the "Magazine" title situated directly underneath the masthead.
My second Masthead also uses Sans Serif font and is titled "Transmission". I have also spaced out the letters to give a more elongated effect. An image of a pylon also replaces the second "I" in the word. This again really plays on the connotations of the word "Transmission". I have also capitalised the entire name to give it a more bold and enticing effect.
My third Masthead uses the name of "Frequency" and has a Sans Serif font. The entire Masthead is capitalised with the letters closely spaced together to give it a more vibrant and bold effect. I have also used an image of a pylon underneath the letter "U" with three distinctly coloured lines emanating from the image. The lines are coloured red, blue and green which match that of the pylons sound waves. This, I felt, made the masthead look more visually appealing and professional.
My fourth masthead uses the name "RAW". As it only contains three letters, I tried to really emphasise the size and sharp colours that are present on the Masthead. All the letters are capitalised whilst also being in a Sans Serif from. I have also included a drop shadow behind the masthead to create a sense of depth. I also decided to colour the Masthead in various shades of red so it instantly stands out to the reader.
My final masthead again uses the name of "Frequency". This time however I decided to experiment with images and how they could be encompassed within my Masthead. I used an image of a heart-monitor frequency graph and placed it within the word itself. This, I feel, really has a clear and strong link with the Masthead name itself whilst also looking sharp and enticing.
