So first off I changed my background of the blog. I feel as though the background should match the vibe of the magazine. I chose the assorted fruits background because it gives off a happy vibe which is what my magazine is going to do. It also makes you want to eat more fruit, eat healthier, and workout more which is also the main goal of the magazine.

Our first step that we took towards creating the front cover was choosing a font we thought would work best for the magazine. We tried out a couple different fonts with our magazine title to see which one fit best. These are the few fonts we tried out. In the end we chose to do the third one. It is called victory fonts. We chose this one because when we looked up fitness magazine we learned that the titles are always bold and are all capital letters. These are some examples of genre conventions. Some other genre conventions we learned about for fitness magazines was that the title is always in a color that stands out to the viewers eyes. Most of the time they are red or yellow (two very bright colors).  We talked about doing a red title because it fits in with the genre conventions. It clearly took a couple tries to figure out the best font that we should use for the front cover.
