Exploring Fonts

Horror font
This type font looks like something that should be used as a title on a scary movie. The font is scary and looks as if it has been hand written. I would think that this type of font would be used on a horror film based on films with young people. For example, it reminds me of the film 'Orphan', and 'The Sixth Sense'. Both films include a young main character with a plot thats strange or disturbing. 





Romance font
I chose to use this font as had a 'romantic' feel to it. This type font uses flicks and swirls to make it look girly and romantic. A love heart replaces the 'O' in the word 'Romance', which is why i think it looks like a romantic font. I would use this font for the title on theatrical posters or a dvd cover for either Rom coms or a film about an emotional love story. This font best suits the film 'The Notebook'. This is because the film is an emotional love story, and the word 'notebook' reminds me of a diary, and this font looks hand written which is why i think it best suits the film.







Sci Fi font
This font suggests a genre of sci-fi or futuristic film because the font is used in films such as: 'Star Trek', 'Star Wars', and 'Alien'. These films are all based in the future or have a plots that are science fictional. The font itself is very bold, square and straight, and not like other fonts. This font is only ever used in sic-fi based films, and you never really see them anywhere else.









Action Font
I chose this font as it shows it best suits the genre of action. The title is bold and looks scratched and is suitable for an action film. In my opinion, i think the font would best relate to the film 'THE EXPENDABLES'. 'THE EXPENDABLES'  is an action film, the film includes scenes with explosives and fire and it relates to the font because it looks worn down and battered, as if it has been exploded.
