The font of the title sequence is very important within a film, therefore we want to choose one that fits into our genre and runs alongside our film well. We used dafont.com to help us come up with some ides, and choose the most appropriate one which we would include.
This font gives us the impression of ransom notes, like cuttings out of newspapers which are used quite often in horror films. This is the only problem that puts us off using this font, we don't want to give the audience a feeling of horror when this is crime thriller. Thrillers and horrors can easily get confused with each other, so we have to be extremely careful that we don't fall into this trap, and using this font wouldn't help.
We all like this font as it is clear and would represent our genre well. On the other hand, it is quite bland and plain, and has no real character. Although it would be suitable, we don't feel that it is enough to make an impact on our credits and make it unique and stand out.
Although this was one of the fonts which stood out to us the most, we think that it gives the impression of a horror more than thriller, just like 'Beat My Guest', but this is portrayed in the more violent and bloody aspects. This would probably be our first choice if we were doing a film which included a murder, or one which included the gory and gruesome parts, but for our crime thriller it's not the most popular font.
This font is ideal for our project as it is both easy to read and fits well into our credit scene. We will use this as we believe that it is the best font available out of our choices. With our detective scene this is very effective, as it can easily be related with them and it can come across as 'serious'- perfect for a crime thriller.
We felt that this font made a big impression as it looks realistic. It would easily fit with our genre and the visuals during the credits scene, however it is very important for the audience to be able to read it easily, which this font makes it hard to do.
