Independent Reseach

 Independent Research (Font)

I researched font for our preparation, as we discussed that we will be doing title sequence so font will take

an important part in the sequence.

Firstly I looked at a video about this man who has worked in design font title for several years and in the video he talked about:

- how the font relates closely to the genre and the film

- how to design font

- the colour of the font

Then I found another video talks about font but for poster, because I couldn't find one for title sequence.

but in this video I learnt how the font can tell everything about the film. 

The font can easily tell the audiences what is the genre.

If we want our own special font, I can find a font that is close to and re-design it on top of it. In summer

I have been study in a workshop, in there I learnt how to re-design the font.

The picture below is what I designed last summer:

- using one font from laptop

- print out

- find a subject that is relate to the project ( such as bacteria was the subject that related to my project so I 

   did 5 different designs from that)

- draw on top of the original font to form the final

- choose colours

For the film title sequence, we talked about how scalpel is the subject that suits the most.

I chose 5 different font bases first and I sent to the group chat and we chose one font together.

Then I printed out and put a layer of paper on top of it. Put a light under it so I can draw on the paper.
