I want my wixwebsite to stand out to my audience,
so I don’t want to use formal fonts like Times Roman Numeral, instead I want to
use more creative fonts that will make my website look more appealing and
unique. However, I would stay away from fonts that are very fancy and hard to
read such as script fonts. When it comes to font size, I don’t want to keep
everything the same size because it resembles an academic paper, which can tend
to bore the audience. I think the more important aspects of the website should
stand out such as titles, so making them a bigger font will allow viewers to
spot them easily. Also, instead of using just one color like writing a paper, I
want to incorporate more than one color that could draw attention to the audience.
However, in the article the author mentioned that using neutral and muted
colors will still make the website seem reliable. I don’t want to use bright
colors because I think people will think I focused more on the colors and look
of the website, rather than the actual content itself. For the layout of the
website I’m planning on adding pictures and visuals, so it will keep viewers
interested. Sometimes when websites are too wordy, it can cause readers to lose
interest and they can forget what they are reading about. Adding visuals will
keep the audience intrigued with the content on the website without having to
read multiple pages with just words on them.
This text showed me how us as readers perceive a certain font or text and how it can influence our mood and how we feel about a certain reading. It also showed me how elaborate texts can draw us into something such as a poster or a title page of a book. Also how very bland fonts do not appeal to many readers as they might think of it as boring and plain. This gives me a lot to think about as project three comes closer. It makes me think of the reader and what type of fonts might draw them into my website, social media page, etc. This text was very helpful for this type of assignment.
