FINAL RESEARCH
Typography
 As part of my final research I decided to look at what fonts I intend to use
for the title and other elements of my production.The reason why I want to
look at the fonts within my research is so that my font reflect my products
well, because it will be a main element of all the products to be able to
keep all the products cohesive.Which would help my work look overall
more professional .
 The website that I am going to use
to create and research is DaFonts. I
am using this website because it
was what I used as part of myAS
production and the fonts worked
well for my opening in the thriller
genre.
 I also want to use this website
because it was easy to use and
have a range of different fonts that
could be used for my products.
To be able to boost my knowledge of the fonts conventionally used within thriller trailer and films. I
decide to look at some examples of thriller film titles to get a better idea at the key elements within it.
Some of the film fonts that I used for my research were:
The reason why I chose to look at theses fonts in more detail is because they all have similarities,
which may help me identify main the convention of thriller film fonts . But there are differences
which may give me ideas as to how I could subvert some of thriller font conventions in order to reflex
the narrative of the film.
One of the main conventions of thriller fonts is the use of sans serif fonts.This font is shown
in all the typography that I am going to research apart from ‘the bodyguard’ .This may be
because san-serif font are stereotypically associated with younger people because it is seen
as less traditional therefore connotes that it is current and something that younger people
are interested in.
The reason why ‘the bodyguard’ may have decided to go against convention and use a serif
font is because it could be used to symbolise more formal and established themes within the
film which may also appeal to a older audience, which therefore makes it appeal to a larger
audience .
Although the majority of the fonts are part of the same category they all have differences which
look unique to their film or franchise which help them become instantly recognisable to their
market as well as boosting their cohesive marketing.
An example of this is the film seven because it has distinctive lettering with it having the effect of
it being painted on with a paint brush because of black specs within the typography.As a well as
this the typography includes smudges around the letters which is not conventional to
typography, because it make it less readable.
The colour of the text is also an important element within typography.The main colours
used within the typography of all of my examples are red, white, black and dark blue and
purple.These colour are all conventional for typography for thriller films.
The reason why red is conventionally used in all elements of thriller films is because it
connotes danger and blood which are commonly associated with the thriller genre.The
colour black also is commonly used and associated with thriller because it symbolises things
with a dark and unsettling nature which are link with main theme and narratives within most
thriller films.This can also be used to explain the reason why dark blue and purple are also
used within thriller films.The colour white is also used mainly for the typography within
thriller films because it help it stand out against the darker colours as well as connoting a
binary opposite, which are common conventions in thriller films.

WHAT I LIKE ABOUTTHETYPOGRAPGHY
 The reason why I chose font 1 was because it was a sans serif font which was very stereotypical of
thriller films as well as the sub genre of psychological thrillers.This is because it is a bold readable
san-serf font which is in black which is bold colour that stands out against a range of background
colours.
 I also choose font number because although it is a serif font I believe that it still connotes the sub
genre I have chosen and may work well with the more sinister nature of the narrative I have
chosen.
 The third I have chosen is a thin slanted sans serif font.The reason why I chose this is because it is
stereotypically the most conventional to the thriller genre and is the most similar to the fonts I had
researched.
 Font number 4 is a spaced out sans serif font which has a typewriter style font.The reason I why I
chose to look at tis font is because I think that I works well with some of the themes of the thriller
genre and it also may look conventional for the credits of my trailer.
WHAT I DON’T LIKE ABOUTTHE
TYPOGRAPHY
 One thing that I don’t like about font 1 is that it not as conventional to psychological thriller as some
of the other fonts I have looked at therefore may not be the right choice because I have decided to
stick to conventions for my psychological thriller trailer and ancillaries.
 A part of font two that may not fit with my final products is that it connotes more of a horror theme
than a psychological thriller therefore
 The main thing that I dislike about font 3 is that it looks more conventional to the sub genre of s is
action thrillers than a psychological thriller. Although this font is the one that I like the best out of all
the ones I have looked at for the title of my thriller trailer.
 After look at font 4 I have decided that this is a font that I would not use for the typography of the
title for my media product.The reason for this is because
FONTS ITHINK I'M GOINGTO USE
 So far the only font that I have decided that I am defiantly going to use for my final media
products is font 4. I am going to use this as font used for parts of the magazine and poster
text as well as the all typography in the thriller apart from the title.
 I still will look at the other fonts I found on DaFonts but I am going to look at more
typography throughout the rest of my research and planning to find typography that better
that is more conventional for my final piece.
