Fonts???

Recently in our last class the group and I started discussing on what type of fonts we would use to show the credits and the title of the movie. So, I started researching and deciding which fonts would fit the theme the best. During my research I came across an article (click here for more) that explained the font process really well, in fact, this is a quote that really stood out to me

"A nice attractive font can make an entire difference on a film, bringing it from an amateur level to professional."

This shows that the type of font used in a film can make or break it, therefor people must take this step seriously and choose a font that grabs a viewers attention, but at the same time is simple.


Here are some of the fonts that I have in mind:

Credits

EB Garamond

Credits

Courier New

Credits

Merriweather

Credits

Oswald

I chose these fonts because they are not only easy to read, but they also can do a good job bringing a thriller vibe to the film depending on how it is placed in the opening. Right now I am leaning towards the second font, but this takes time and discussion from all the group members because as said in the quote a font can bring a film from an "amateur level to professional".

I know this is a short post guys, but stay tuned for my next post where we will be making the props and showing pictures of how they turned out!
