Fonts and Typefaces
Why is this so important?
- It shows your genre
- It links to your target audience
- It will be picked up by the media specialists, when delivering your pitch, if they're not suitable
Serif
Serif fonts are identifiable by the small lines on the edge of the letters that make the font easier to read in print. Fonts in the serif typeface include Times new roman, Georgia and Book Antiqua.
Sans serif
Sans serif font letters do not have a serif attached to them, so they display more clearly on websites. Sans serif fonts include Ariel and verdana.
Very precise, with sharp round edges.
Script
Fonts in the script typeface are meant to imitate the fluidity of human handwriting. Fonts in the script typeface include Comic sans, Kristen and Lucida.
Used for exclusive interviews in a magazine, or a diary entry, to imitate the personal information they have written or provided.
