We considered a number of fonts to use to build the text for our opening sequence, selected from a website called DaFont.com. We looked for fonts that would help build on our genre of horror, and partially conformed to the conventions due to this.
In some ways conventions were followed because we used red thick sticky type font which is often associated with horror. However we also challenged conventions as these are not often used as main text, particuarly titling.
This font was a strong contender, as although it strongly suggests the genre of horror, it is not too difficult to read, as many are. It is quite simplistic and would sit nicely into most shots.
This was another font we looked at and strongly considered. It caught our attention initially because it was quite similar to the text used for "Dexter", one of our main inspirations.
