Existing names: 1. Kerrang The name comes from the sound a strummed electric guitar makes. This idea of the guitar sound being used follows the theme of rock and roll that the magazine is part of. The style is shattered black letters which symbolise the rebellious and destructive side behind rock and punk. The black specifically mirrors most of the gothic bands that feature between the pages of Kerrang. 2. Classic rock The name speaks for itself in the sense that a magazine based around the classic rock genre being named Classic rock, there need be any more. The font is classical and elegant which would reflect the classical side to classic rock, and perhaps mean something else to the older audience that follows it. The colour (faint gold) is classic in its own right and also could be used to represent the prior success of the bands that this magazine covers. 3. Rollingstone Whilst the name could suggest influence from the great British rock band, Rolling stone magazine is actually not entirely music based, and even the music it does review isn’t often rock. That set aside, the title does reference a clear mention to the rock band, with a font similar to those used to mean the 80’s and a colour scheme to match old fashioned American diners. The bold red standing out to the silver polished background makes us feel as though the past is being re-written in the magazine, and the style is retro enough to influence the title of my magazine. All three titles are under three words, each has influence from rock and have 2 main colours. My title should reflect this and only feature a maximum of 2 colours that will not clash with my theme.
