Research into Mastheads

I have researched different kinds of mastheads, straplines and bylines used in front cover magazines. Different magazines may use a different type of font to represent their magazine as the main headline can emphasis this. for example the kerrang masthead is in really large, extra bold blocked font which is eye catching to readers. the blackbackground used in the masthead contrasts with the white font which also makes it stand out. The use of effects is also illustrated, this is shown as in the font there is a usage of barbed wired/shattered glass which is symbollic.
