The document discusses different font options for a British thriller film. It considers whether fonts look too bold, child-like, or suited more for horror. In the end, the author selects a simple yet creepy font found in Adobe Premiere, concluding it is less child-like than options on dafont.com and its scratchy look complements the soundtrack, making it suitable for a thriller.
Choosing the Right Font for a British Thriller Film
1.
2. This font reminds me of Green Street. I think this would be
an appropriate font for the type of thriller that I am doing as
it looks quite British in keeping with my thrillers subtheme.
However it is quite bold and in your face, I don’t know
whether this would suit my film.
This font is quite quirky and I like how it looks incomplete and
ambiguous. However it is slightly heavy. I do not think that it would
fit in very well with my thriller, I think it is more suiting to a creepy,
cold horror film.
3. This font could be interpreted in two ways. It could looks quirky and
creepy and could fit in well with my thriller as it is quite subtle but still
loud. Alternatively it could be completely wrong for my thriller and may
end up looking similar to the writing of a child.
This is similar to the second font idea. I like that the colour is not
filled, this is what adds the mystery with the font. There is not as
much going on with this font as the other one however, it could
still be too loud for a British thriller and may suit a horror film
more.
4. In the end I found this simple but effective font whilst I was playing around with the
editing on Adobe Premiere. It is similar to third font I looked at on ‘dafont.com’
however it is less child like and more creepy looking. The font compliments the
soundtrack well and is quite scratchy looking which makes it more suitable for a
thriller film.
