Magazine Third Draft - Magazine Title and Tagline

To give the font for the title of my magazine a unique feel I decided to create it myself using Adobe Illustrator

For a basis to work off I wrote out the name of my magazine in 'Lemon Milk' font which was similar to what I wanted the final font to look like


I first right clicked on the text and selected 'Create Outlines' to allow me to move around all of the corners individually




I then ungrouped the word to allow each letter to be moved around individually


I then selected both of the I's and coloured them red to make them stand out and meet the conventions of the thriller


After this I decided to connect both of the I's to the next letter to make my font more unique and therefore stand out from other magazines



I then widened each of the M's so they weren't going straight down


I wanted more of the line below the P and in order to achieve this and keep the round shape at the top I first extended the line downwards


The I squashed the whole letter to be smaller


Lastly I dragged out the right hand side of the top of the P so it met the E


I then decided to flatten the top corners across the whole word, see below the before and after for the M and E.



See below the final word



Here I have put it on my magazine front cover


Lastly I added a tag line for my magazine above the title saying "Behind the headlines, behind the scenes"


To make it stand out and match the magazine title I places two of the words in red
