Fonts: Title and Credits

 Welcome back to my blog! This week I am starting off with fonts for the title and credits.

After researching different fonts and viewing film openings for films within our genre, I found lots of ideas. As for the title, the font will be much larger, in all caps and spaced out. For instance, in the film Bridget Jones’s Diary is one of the few that I saw online that I really liked how it was. (Photo of the title is below). Nati and I will choose more specifically which font we will use at a later time, but for now we have an idea for how it would be shown.


    As for the credits, Nati and I will choose a font that gives off a more personal appeal to viewers. Instead of using a normal or serious font, we decided on a font that fits that level of personalness we are looking for. It is going to be similar to the font Caveat (which is this one). It all depends on what fonts we have available when editing, but the style will be the same. This font will be for the names of people/companies, while the title for each person/company will be different. The font for the titles will be like the more serious fonts. 


Placement for the credits will be around the bottom left of the screen, fading in and out. This is to keep the focus of viewers on what is happening in the film opening, since it is extremely important to the story.
