Scratch - Credit Typography


Credit Typography
Originally uploaded by Adam9309

For 'Scratch', we want to use a specific type of font. The film title is a big factor in what we want, and the idea we have is for it to be scratched in somewhere. There are 3 different options.

Scratch Font #1
This font adds another aspect to the film - if we chose to use this as our font for the credits, it would keep within the chosen genre. The scratched effect would add to the very simple concept of the opening, but could add some continuity throughout the film, if it were made.

Scratch Font #2
'Nail Scratch' is the second option we have for our typography. It doesn't have as much 'horror' within the font as the first option, but due to the slight slant on some of the letters, it adds a new depth, and if used with the right fade in and out, could create a 'goosebump moment'.

Scratch - Chosen Font
The typography we have chosen isn't actually a computerised font. We plan to actually scratch our credits into items found in the outside world - plaster on a wall, bricks, chalk, paving slabs, wood, paint on a car. We feel this will add to the flashback moments within our opening, and give the best thriller link-in out of the three options.
