Title Font Results Analysis

I have collated a total of 10 responses from my target audience regarding their preferences for the titles font of my opening sequence. I will now proceed to process these results into a pie-chart to present them more clearly, and then discuss the outcome of this and which one will be my chosen font.

Which of these title fonts do you believe is most effective in conveying the psychological horror genre of the given storyline?

Remnant Eating You Alive I Still Know Hanshand Sleepy Hollow

Remnant

The pie chart is representative of the fact that 60% of the target audience prefer the title font Remnant, thus proving to be the most popular. Some participants voiced their opinions on the font, with most explaining it has a juvenile, sinister look to it. After having heard this reaction, I instantly agreed with the fact that it looks almost child-like, or written in childs scrawl, which would be clearly indicative of the main protagonist in my opening sequence Emily.

Eating You Alive

With Eating You Alive only receiving 20% of my target audiences votes, its safe to say that this was not the most successful font in conveying the psychological horror genre. I think the issue with this font is that the participants felt it was too obvious and explicit for the psychological aspect, which

tends to be more subtle and sophisticated. It also implies a gore theme, which is not included in my plot.

I Still Know

Quite surprisingly, my audience members were not particularly in favour of the font I Still Know, despite the fact myself and most of my classmates seemed to like it a lot as I utilised it for my animatic before collating this audience research. Perhaps they felt it did not suggest a horror genre enough, due to the fact it is quite plain and elusive. However, I believe this element is ideal for my opening sequence because it is exactly the kind of style that the independent platform of film would opt for. Therefore, although considering the most popular preference of my audience, I have chosen to go forward with the use of this font in my final production.
