Short List of Design Ideas – Text Font

Now that I have decided on an album title which I think suits the genre of music and that the new artist that I am presenting already has a name I can start to think on what type of text font I would want to use on the digipak and poster.

After doing my research on posters and digipaks based on the genre of soul, I already know that the font style has to be classic, smart and simple, making it not to hard to read. Also the text of the album title and the artist’s name has to be in capital letters, but with the artist’s name being in a larger font.

On Microsoft Word I have looked at all the fonts available and here is a short list of the type of fonts which I keep in consideration for it on my digipak and poster.

ATHENA
MEMORIES OF A LIFETIME
TIMES NEW ROMAN

ATHENA

ADOBE ARABIC

ATHENA

BATANG

ATHENA

MINGLIU_HKSCS

ATHENA

TEKTON PRO

ATHENA
MEMORIES OF A LIFETIME
TRAJAN PRO

I think that the Trogan Pro font will work best with the ancillary products and suits the soul genre. However in my next lesson I may get people opinions on what font I should use from the short list as the main text font and the sub text font, as they are the audience. 

So after the photo shoot of the artist in lesson (14/12/12), I will then work on picked a colour scheme for the ancillary work.
