Fonts Research

The type of font we need to use for our opening credits and title of our thriller film must be eye catching and different to the plain, standard fonts used for everyday documents.
To get some ideas of what type of font we could use, I found a website - http://www.madtuts.com/2010/02/85-famous-tv-movie-fonts/ that shows many different fonts that have been used for famous films.
I have selected a few examples from this website that are suitable for a thriller film and that we could think about using for our own film.


This is an effective font as it is original and looks like its being used for a thriller or horror film as it is in bold capitals and has a slight authentic look to it.



This font looks fairly modern and mysterious yet I think it's slightly too plain and boring for a thriller film.




This font looks as if it has been painted by hand yet still looks scary as it is bold and not every letter is perfectly in line.





This font looks more suitable for a horror film as it looks like the letters have been drawn using blood which gives a scary effect to it.


This font, in my opinion is the most suitable font for a thriller film as it is clear and can still be mysterious.

This font is simple yet effective as it isn't neat and isn't written with capitals. This makes the film seem like it's a thriller or horror as it has a scary element to it.
