Fonts...

For my trailer, I have decided to experiment with different font styles. The colour of the text will be white on a black background to match in with my poster and the theme of the film. I think I will use a certain animation as well, to add to the professionalism of my trailer. 

These are just some of the fonts that I have looked at. I like the serif style fonts as they don't look too unprofessional like for example Comic Sans, but aren't too plain. These match in with the fonts on my poster, which then links the trailer and the poster effectively. I like the white on black as it looks clean and professional, and matches in with the genre of thriller/romance/action, similar to that of The Host, with a simple two tone colour scheme.




I really like the titles in the trailer for The Host, they are simple and the colours match my chosen colour scheme. I may just use a gradient on the fonts I use in my trailer, it looks quite effective, as well as the fade in and out and the sync in time with the music. 




I like the titles in this film trailer, but after editing it, I noticed that I liked the white text on the black background. It was similar to the trailers I have seen, but different. I also liked the link between the poster and the trailer through the choice of fonts. I have used the same type of font for both and the same colours for the text as well as the background. These colours also match the genre of the trailer as it's a thriller/action/romance, and the colours black and white contrast each other, it symbolises light and dark and the basis of my trailer is good versus bad, so the colours can represent light versus dark.
