Font research





These are the types of fonts I want to use for my main title in my film. As you can you see most of them are thin and quite plain. I want them to be like this because it's how a girls writing is imagined to be and the type of font a teenage girl would use. It's simple, therefore the title doesn't draw away too much attention from the camera footage. I don't want the title to be a work of art and amaze people, I just want it to say what the title is and relate to the girl as well. They all look like different types of hand writing, therefore it could represent how it's going to be the journey of the girls life, like a diary.

For the inter titles on screen I would still use thin writing, to match the main title of the film font, so that it keeps in the same theme as the rest of the film. However instead of using the "avenir condensed hand" text- which I would maybe use for the main title- I would use the "hipsterish" font instead as it's a bit thicker, which would be easier to read when in a smaller size.

For my main text I would use either "a little sunshine" or "avenir condensed" as they are simple but also thicker than most of the text that would be used. The font would give the film a simple look, but not look too boring or overwhelming at the same time. They would target the audience of teenagers, because the titles are like handwriting, and it would make the audience think that the movie is going to be some sort of diary which could be quite outgoing. This would appeal to my target audience because they would want to see a film where they see the girl go through her life, so that they can relate and learn from it.
