Typography Research

Typography 

In Wednesday's lesson we looked at different typography title sequences as a class. We looked at the following:

• Zombieland (2009)
• Forrest Gump (1994)
• Lord Of War (2005)
• Catch Me If You Can (2002)

As we are looking to make our title sequence point of view-ish, the title sequence that relates to our group idea is 'Lord Of War'  because it also does point of view but as an object instead of a person.

We then looked at the term Serif and Sans Serif during the lesson and we now know the differences between them.

Serif: a slight projection finishing off a stroke of a letter in certain typefaces

Sans Serif: a style of type without serifs.

The typography in Zombieland is in contrast of the killings to become a zombie. The color red connotes and foreshadows death and blood being somewhere in the title sequence. This text does not have any Serif text which would make it Sans Serif.
