Typography

After our typography lesson , our next task to do was to start looking into typography designs for out title sequence. What we wanted to look for was a font to look 'Distorted ' to go along with the genre of our film and possibly handwritten effect to link in with the 'Mothers Diary'. And bellow are the designs we have liked and was founded on 'www.dafont.com' This font is bold and stands out. It has distorted effects , with the font fading color in places but also , has very slight white gaps which give of a effect its like being scratched and the font is old as the ink is ruined suggesting the horror genre of our film. In addition , the font gives off the idea that it his hand written and the way its been written in a messy looking font , gives off a negative effect about who has written it and that 'Apartment 6' is possibly haunted or something bad has happened as the font gives off a negative thought it about the apartment before you even seen it. hOwever , the downside was the number '6' it never had the number in the same font. So this totally ruined the font. On the otherhand, if this was the chosen font , we could use a similar 6 from a different font just for the number. in this font , it look handwritten , which can help with the link to the mother diary , however , we feel the font is too think and doesn't give off a good scary / creepy effect which we are looking for. in this font in this font in this font in this font
