Myself and Rachel started looking at different ideas in relation to font and typography for the band. This may appear to be a minute detail, but can actually be hugely influential as once a font is chosen for a band it normally becomes synergistic with all of their output, both commercial and creative. We started browsing the font database Dafont where individual, new fonts can be downloaded onto your computer. Considering we now had a band name, we decided to trial some of these options with the title that they would embody both on the Digipak and website.
In the order of the image (above), the fonts are;
1. Les Sensations de Cerise
2. Bebas Neu
3. Telugu Sangam NM
4. Criticized
Personally, the one I like the most is Bebas Neu as I feel it is stylishly simple yet bold. However, the rough creativity of Les Sensations de Cerise suits our bands style and look. We are now thinking of combining the two fonts to create something that juxtaposes visually, possibly using one just for the name of the album. We can make these decisions fully when it comes to creating these products, under the knowledge that we have decent and interesting options.
