Week Eight -Font

 

   when Making the logo I used a program called live type , the apple software allowed me to a simple yet professional looking title. Above you see to the right side a tool bar that allows you to pick a font and edit it (Its really that simple) it gave us the option of animating the text as shown bellow


   However we though that to animate it would be a bit much when we already have an animated logo , it would be easy and better fitting if we just kept it simple just like the other titles we looked at in the power point I uploaded.



When I got a the font I wanted I exported it to the desktop. Although it does not have a black background, when put in to the film it should have one but we will only put it in when we have finished editing the film footage

 

 

 

 

 

   This is from Fehinti's blog and was done at a time that i was not available but have been caught up to speed.

Week Seven -Font

   I have been looking into different fonts and thought of the credits to Zombieland. I think the way the credits and the action interact with each other is very cleaver and interesting. I don't think we have the means to do something like this, but we could use it for inspiration e.g. stratigically placing cridits in places right next to where someone will be walking.

Week Seven -Font research

   I have been looking into fonts and evaluating which would work best with our film and genre choice. Here are a few i traced from the computer:

   I really liked this font but i think it's a bit too harsh. The fonts that i have looked at are more rounded and softer. The group also liked this option the most and we looked into other fonts that were similar but less harsh. We will most likely use this font or one very similar for our film.

   I wanted a font option that was completely diffrent from what i had seen in other detective/crime fiction films. I didn't like this font very much and the group thought the same. It isn't what we are looking for as i wanted an example of what we knew we wanted to avoid.

   This font i thought was more suited to a si-fi film and not the type of film we are making. It has the rounded, soft edges that the first font needed but isn't what we are looking for.

   I thought this font would suit our film because it is ver similar to the examples i've seen (e.g. the poirot example). This could be a back up font or a font we use if we decided to use two different fonts for example, one font for the titles/credits and one for the name of our film.
