The Decided Font

The font that we have decided for our opening sequence is the 'Epic Slash' font from DaFont. the reason being for this is because it has the feel of a rushed murderer feel. this is achieved by the straight edged font sides but at the end it is sloppy and cuts off giving the motion of a knife or slashing motion. Additionally it has a retro feel to it which contrasts with our modern day approach to the film however this can communicate to the audience that it still has the same typical horror aspects. The un-even font width and style gives the impression of blood however, it is simple so that not too much is taken away from the scene its self and is still easy to read.

This is also a similar style to Friday the 13th title as it has the same effect of a bloody, careless view of a killer.
