Fonts

    While I'm away, Sabrina is in charge of filming Ricky's scenes. In the meantime, I will start researching fonts to use for our credits. Since we are starting our introduction with a black screen stating the production company's or main producer's name, (such as "Steven Spielberg Presents" as can be seen in the very beginning of Back to the Future) we need to figure out fonts to use for that, the actors' names, director's name, and the title. We are unsure of if we are going to be using different fonts for all of the different categories of credits in our intro or if we will stick one (which is most likely).

    I was thinking of perhaps using a font that is "beach" themed but also easy to read. This eliminated a lot of options. Additionally, I wanted to use a font that had 80s vibes, something that screamed retro. This would be a great addition to the aesthetic we were going for. When considering these 3 things, I found two or three fonts that I thought could work but I would still need Sabrina's approval before officially declaring them the font for our film introduction.

    The first font is one that I personally love as it gives me vintage vibes as well as it is simple to read and it is smooth and clean which to me fits the beach aesthetic dictated on the checklist. Let me know what you think!




The next one is SUPER retro, SUPER 80s. It's easy to read but it doesn't really give off the beachy vibes I would like. It's still super cool and I do really like it. It fits the idea of this film being an 80s film though. Opinions?

Lastly, this one is kind of like the keys of a typewriter or an old keyboard. I actually really like this one but am not sure if it fits our theme and aesthetic. I think it does because of the keys being kind of 80s looking but the beach vibes are no where to be found. Write your thoughts in the comments!


    Well, that is all for today! Write to you guys later!

And finally... the Creative Critical Reflection

This project was certainly an experience that taught me a lot. I had a lot of fun filming both the film introduction AND the CCR. And here...
