While looking for typography these were our best choices when choosing from the horror category. We decided that none of these would fit our movie properly as it is a psychological thriller and would require more grit/edge in order for it to really stand out. These fonts would be more suitable for true horror movie which our movie will not be.
After searching the fonts we came to a conclusion that one of these two would be used as our title font. These fonts show more "roughness" than the others and we think the title name looks good in them. Another thing which made us choose this font is how much it would stand out. The title is supposed to catch the audiences eye and these two capture how the title should look to a major extent.
These fonts were other fonts we liked and we have decided to use them as our fonts for the rest of the typography that appears on screen. One will be used for the directors names and actors and the other will be used for the "less important" typography we will include in our opening sequence. We decided the more bold of the two should be used for the directors and actors names because in most movies this is what the producer does in order to help them stand out and keep the audience interested. These fonts will be good as they are in bold letters and will help the audience be able to read them better as it will stand out from the background of the movie. If the font didn't stand out the audience might miss the opening credits and not know what type of movie it was going to be.
Learning Comments
From this task I have learned that the style of font is very important as it should reflect the genre of the movie helping the audience partially know what type of film it will be. We found that more serious story lines have more "normal" typography but as our movie has a hint of horror we chose a slightly different font for the title typography.
