This was my first attempt at creating a masthead/logo. As it was my first attempt I tried to produce something that was simple, however when it was finished I found that it lacked any originality and in reality was not eye catching and rather boring to look at. The distressed effect on the letters do represent my genre well as it is stereotypically thought that those in the indie lifestyle are rebellious, which fits Stanley Hall's youth representation theory well. The colour choice, black, only adds to this.
This was the second attempt at producing a logo/masthead and was ultimately the one I settled on. I wanted to this time produce something that was more original and was interesting to look at. At this point I had conducted my research and decided on a name and also the colour scheme of my magazine. Red and black are used throughout my magazine and I did not want to break this trend in my logo, so instead I incorporated it into my design. Overall I am happy about the way my logo has turned out, the use of one letter, "C" is effective at making the logo more recognisable and it still manages to maintain a sense of individuality and professionalism.
