What Is Typography?
Typography is another word for "font". Typography is how the writing is presented to the audience. When we as media students analyse typography, we look at the following things, which is; style, size, letter case, and colour in the font.
Typography And Connotations: Various Genres?
Disney fonts are very bubbly and quite italic, bringing a happy vibe to the title of the film. This can portray a positive atmosphere for the film and audience and makes people happy.
Horror fonts are bold and usually have effects of Halloween to it. This makes the atmosphere eerie for the audience and shows an uncomfortable way in the the font for the audience's eyes.
Romance fonts are italic and have a sweet look to it, bringing a happy vibe to the title of the film. This shows a sweet style of font that is smooth and sets a romantic mood for the audience.
Typography And Thrillers: Examples Of Thriller Fonts?
These are different types of fonts that would be used in thrillers or horrors. As you can see they are all quite bold and also quite messy in a scary way. They set an eerie mood for the audience.
Analysis Choices I May Consider?
The bloody/slimy font is quite gruesome and is good for a title of thriller as it sets the scene. Another thriller font example I may consider is the thin, italic one which looks like scratches, this portrays violence and maybe animal-like behaviour from characters in the thriller it is advertising.
Conclusion: What I Will Use And Why?
I will use a bold/dark font because I believe in my thriller that's what will suit the narrative best. If I had a thriller font that was dripping which looked like slime or blood it would suit my themes in the thriller as mine if more psychological than bloody and gruesome.
