Font Mood Board

Some of these fonts such as doodle gum and floralies include patterns drawn from the stereotype of psychedelic rock culture created around the time of Woodstock in the late 60s. Other fonts like blank eye and surfing capital tend to express the more alternative and less decorative side of the stoner rock and psychedelia through less decorative and more warped letters.

Lots of these fonts like wizard’s magic and Oliver appear to be of the fantasy genre which links to the outlandish ideas and music of the target audience I am trying to reach along with some of their appearance in a visual sense.

Another reason I chose the fonts that I did is because I thought they would be attractive to the eye and help to draw attention to the magazine during distribution online or physically. I thought fonts like floydian would be especially attractive to the target audience as they would recognize the font from pink Floyd’s logo and be intrigued to pick up the magazine and at least consider a purchase.
