Possible Title Fonts

Using Dafont, i began searching for title fonts that would look suitable for our opening sequence.
The majority of fonts i collected look quite distorted, which relates to the idea of the main characters
memory failing. I decided while looking through that i would collect a numeber of fonts from the typewriter
section in Dafont, i did this because i wanted the fonts to have a professional look, and some of the fonts
under other sections look somewhat unprofessional, with the titles matching each genre in the typical fashion, which i thought was too much of a cliche, e.g. a blood dripping font used for a horror film.

As a group we have decided that we will show our titles over actual footage rather than
showing them over a black background, as the sequence is only two minutes long, meaning
the sequence would be incredibly dull using this method. Although this method is interesting
as it creates the atmosphere for a film, through the use of the soundtrack, and the colour anf font
of the titles. However we will extract certain crew member responsibilities and mention them in
our sequence.

We feel as if this method is more appropriate, as it is alot more interesting for the audience
and gives the audience an idea and a feel for the film. This will allow us to create a sense of mystery
while introducing certain characters from our film. Some of the titles previously selected could be used here
while the titles showing the cast and crew and appearing in different shots. The positioning if the titles are also something to be considered. Personally i think we should have the cast and crew members appearing in the
corner of the screen in a simple typewriter font.
