Typograpghy

Font 1) Denotes a thicker font, as if drawn with marker pen/ handwritten stlye. Good typography for a pysgological thriller or perhaps a political one.

Font 2)Denotes of a thinner font, with imagages of newspaper cuttings- this could connote a pysogological thriller where the antagoinst uses newspaper cuttings as a form of communication, silmiar to 'Se7en'. Out of all five typography, I would use this typography for my thriller opening as it is silimar to our film's plotline- forging and stolen identity. This could also be used for the sub genre espionage as the typography looks as it invovles something secret.

Font 3) This typography could be used for an action thriller. It denotes of chunky black faded letters, conntoting action within the narrative and perhaps a male protagonist.

Font 4) The typography could be connoted for the sub genre supernatural thriller. It denotes of a thin typography and slightly slanted font creating an unsettling effective for the specatator.

Font 5) The final typography denotes very thin sharp handwritting. This could also connote the sub genre of a supernatural thriller.


Example of opening credits I would like to recreate:





For typography, I have been inspired by the opening credits for the psygological film 'Se7en'. The scratchy handwritten font could perhaps connote that the antagonist state of mind is unstable and so conforms to the convention of a psygological thriller. The editing is effect as well- jumpcutting images in the background creates a distorting experience for the spectator and shows engima codes such as newspaper cuttings, and so engaging the audience.
The use of drums also creates tension for the spectator, effectove soundtrack is a convention of a thriller to create an emotonial response from the audience. By using an effiecent soundtrack, typography for titles and place engima codes at the beginning to drive narrative makes it an effective thriller opening as I hope to achieve this with my thriller opening.
