Deciding on the Title Font and Effect


Once we had decided on the name of our Film Noir, Voluptuous Vehemence (which, in very basic terms, means 'sensual violence/intensity'.) Eloise and I felt that this title would conform to the conventions of a Film Noir. The alliteration would also add rhythm to the title.

We asked to use our peers as a focus group to decide which font they believed conformed the best to the Film Noir genre and also which was most attractive in their opinion. We did this by creating a video on iMovie where the same title would appear but with various different fonts and took a vote afterwards. The above font is the final choice.

The two effects displayed above were chosen by Elly and I to decide between. However, the typewriting style effect causes the letters to overlap in a way that makes the title unclear, and so that assisted us in deciding on the simple swiping effect.
