Typography for Captive

In the second half of Wednesday's lesson we begun looking at text to use in our title sequence on 'Da Font'. We decided to test these different fonts that appealed to us using our main cast's names.

Out of these 6 texts we looked at our group decided that we like "Old Newspaper types" and "Angel" the most and they are the two which would fit into our Thriller genre the most. We are unsure with using the "Angel" font as we haven't filmed our title sequence yet and this typography may look unclear when placed on our filming. I personally prefer the "Old Newspaper types" in general because I believe the type look text would fit into the theme of diaries in our title sequence well, however if the group make the decision with "Angel" I wouldn't mind because I believe the text fits into the Thriller genre well because it was distorted, it reminds me slightly of an influential text of SE7EN.

We believed that "Bebas" looked too a like to a comedy genre title sequence as the text is bold and eyecatching. We found the other two texts too plain for the title sequence idea that we currently have and it would look too out of place on screen.
