Fonts for OTS

Here are a few examples of titles for noir film. We will use this to decide which fonts would be appropriate. All of these fonts have a huge impact. These also have either no colour or little colour which has large impact on the title. Most fonts are also very bold or very thin. This makes it have a huge impact on the audience because the bold text is very clear which means they can easily read it. The boldness also makes it easier to read.

This font is simple but has a large impact on the reader due to the the splatters of white which due to film noir being black and white could represent blood. This will give the audience an idea of what will happen within the film that .The font is also not very readable due to the splatters which could be a problem for the audience trying to read it depending on what is in the background of the title. This should be used in a distopian film which applies to film noir because something will go wrong. The title shows something being broken down which applies to our everyman. This font is also typical because it's bold like a majority of the titles above.

This font will have a large impact on the reader due to it's boldness and roughness. This may show the reader that our film will follow someone who's gone through lots. It is also very readable so the audience won't have trouble knowing what the film is called. This font may be typically used in an action movie because it catches attention very easily and is easy to read.

This font represents noir film because it has a fog over it which adds a sense of mystery to the title. This should set the tone of mystery for the audience and give them a hint toward the mystery of the film. This font would also be typically used in a distopian film but could represent that our everyman is being broken down and pieces of him are a blur. This font may not be very readable depending on the background behind the title. This would also be typical because it's bold like a majority of the titles in the collage above

This font is very bold and would also typically be used in a distopian film due to the parts within the text missing. This would also be appropriate because it would represent our everyman. This also gives the title some mystery due to the parts missing from the title. This font is quite unclear and hard to read  so it won't have as much impact on the audience.

This font represents the time period we want to show but is not conventional as most noir films have bold titles so that they grab your attention. This would probably be more commonly used in a romantic film set in the same time period as noir. Due to the title not being very bold the audience will have trouble reading it.

This font is traditionally used for gothic horror however we may use it for our traditional noir because it could represent that our everyman isn't a normal person. This font also isn't very bold like the ones in the collage above but I feel that it represents the time period we want to represent.
