magazine planning fonts

The fonts that I would like to use for my magazine would be the most elegant of fonts. Preferably a font that resembles that of cursive. In addition to that style i would like to add styles from Money Magazine like helvetica, garamond, and bodoni. My magazine will resemble these styles since I am drawing inspiration from them and i feel that the fonts will look well with the content that i will be speaking about. Helvetica is a very traditional style without drawing from the boredom of other standard fonts like ariel and times new roman, it is distinct enough that a keen eye could pay attention to that small detail. The garamond font reminds me of a more elegant type of writing similar to one of cursive or anything like that. I would like t use this font when featuring expensive houses, hotels, boats, or cars as I am trying to emphasize the topic of an elegant and luxurious lifestyle in my magazine. Not only that but i may introduce one final font which is bodoni which I may use depending on the feel of the magazine and how it looks in comparison to helvetica because they are both very similar fonts.

Creating the cover " The beginning"

Image
     When creating the cover of my magazine i took into account the types of photographic techniques when choosing the picture for the cover and any other modifications that I added to the picture afterwards. Before I even touched Adobe Photoshop or Indesign I wanted to capture a picture that could show some sort of resemblance to the financial world of investing and fiance. One picture that I captured when driving around the extravagant neighborhoods of Brickell in Miami was of the TD Ameritrade bank. The technique I decided to utilize was an establishing shot of the whole bank with the fancy buildings in the back towering over the scenery as well to show that the bank is in a metropolitan area. In addition to that when choosing the camera angle I included a slight tilt to the picture in order to almost imitate the same movement a tourist would do when looking at at a large building in a big city. This emphasized the importance of the building and that it is not just a...
