Chosen Film Title and Style

I have now reached the stage in this ongoing process where I have chosen the font and style of writing I believe suits, matches and overall enhances the theme of the film genre I am presenting.

Below is the chosen title and style:

As I stated in an older post, this font is very much similar to typography used in the young new wave of urban films we see nowadays
  • The bold black effect is very strong and effective.
  • The jagged, disjointed effect on the lettering could be connotations to anger, corrupton, breaking points and violence which are vital aspects to these new genre of film.

Initially I was more inclined to choose another font (see right) which alternated the facings of letters. This also included detailed imagery of barbed wire intertwining with the letters, however after detailed analysis of typography used in previous urban films I noticed how more emphasis and focus was set upon the image of characters and location rather than the title itself.


I am very content with my final decision as I believe it is the most successful typography to utilise in order to replicate and closely recreate a new urban film similar to previous releases but also suits very much the ideas and potential storyline behind the film 'TWISTED.'
