Typography - The tile

Typography For Our Title

Ringbearer
I Still Know
Traveling Typewriter
Major Label
Portmanteau Regular
Cold Coffee
An Unfortunate Event
Optimus Princeps

After looking at typography in other horrors and thrillers, we have decided to use a font that is serif as to make it look simple yet classic and elegant. We also want it to be white against a dark or black background so it will stand out and grab the audiences attention, it will also give the idea of pure vs evil. We also like the idea of the text being capitalised as again it makes it stand out. We wanted the title "The House" to be in the middle of the screen with lots of negative space around it to show a sense of isolation and mystery, and as it would be the only thing on the screen it will automatically focus the audiences attention on the tile. To conclude, we have chosen to use Optimus Princeps font for the title as we believe it fits in with our requirements, our film opening and the name of the title. This is because we think it looks like the font used on house numbers.
