We tried out many different fonts and colours for our title and credits. We put all our ideas onto a piece of paper and got as many people as we could to vote on which font style they liked best.As you can see people liked Papyrus and they said to us that it looked scary, but not 'horror' like. They also said that they thought it fitted well with the thriller genre and the title of our film.
Therefore we used it as the font for both our title of the film and for the credits.
We discussed many colours that could potentially fit with the font. We wanted something that would stand out and look mysterious. Therefore we looked at other colours of titles n other thriller films and they all had something in common, this was that they used two colours. Therefore we decided to use two colours to go along with the thriller idea of using two colours.
We tried Red and White, but we could not really see it as it was getting lost in background of our scenes.
Therefore we tried many more and we found that yellow and white worked well. We got our inspiration to do this from the film Layer Cake. It worked very well, and we were very pleased with it as it stood out without distracting you from what was going on in the scene.
Here is a screen grab of what our final font choice and colour look like in our opening sequence.
