Our Font For Our Title Sequence

This titles is the font we have chosen to use for our opening.

We have chosen this font because it looks like a circus kind of font and its unusual. We also put it in red as it represents blood and gives a mysterious feel for the audience.

The font for the title sequence of this horror film is linked well with the theme of horror. The font is very rough and jagged, asif bits of the letters are missing (as letters are normally blocked letters). This is mysterious and could be represtenting how people can go missing and dissapear, which is scary and unpleasant. The colour used, which is red, is associated with blood and anger, these are negative and create a negative feel for the audience. The font also looks like it has been written in blood which is unusual and makes people think of death/murder.

Font Analysis

We have been looking at different fonts, for ideas for the title for our opening. These fonts are a very unusual shape. The lettering goes from fat to thin on both and its very odd as normal text is normally neat and inproportion. I analysed different types of fonts I thought would be suitable to use in a horror film, and from this research I have started to produce a film title for our opening scene. These fonts i chose look creepy and distorted and that's what we were looking for for our opening titles, something scary and eye catching. We could have added sound effects to make it sound like a child was writing it on a chalkboard. We didnt end up choosing any of these fonts as we found a font that suited our movie a lot better.
