Title of magazine.

ALT.

My magazine title is 'ALT' which was finally created from the inspiration of my genre, alternative/indie and 'ALT' is in reference to alternative being different and unique which i want my magazine to come across as. My genre i knew would be my main inspiration for my magazine title as this would attract the attention of my readers being as thats what they indie and alternative individuals and having 'ALT' as my title i feel readers may really connect with my different and unique magazine. I also love how short simple and dramatic this title is, it will entice readers to want to know more about my magazine and its simplistic unique ways shown just from the title.
