Different typography used in movie titles
The first 15 seconds of a movie is the most important because you have to try and get the audience right away. This can be difficult when the first 15 seconds is the opening consisting of titles. A good appetising and appealing title is important for the popularity of the production company and the ability to keep the audience interested.

Film titles can be great fun. In them we see the bond between the art of film making and graphic design — and perhaps visual culture as a whole. They have always served a greater purpose than themselves: to move the overarching story forward.

A nice attractive font can make an entire difference on a film, bringing it from an amateur level to professional. But be careful, what you might think is cool could be ridiculed by others, so make sure to seek a professional designers’ help with this.
A good title will give your film some credibility and life to begin with. Viewers recognize these efforts and even though they might not say anything about it, they do engage to it. The title sequence usually sets the tone for the rest of the film, so if some quality work is put into the title, the same effort will usually follow in the film

There is no need to go to Hollywood levels to create a good title sequence, most of the time just choosing the right typography and color with a nice background would be enough to leave people hooked. A simple fade in or even a mask wipe can work wonders, just get your speed right, you want it to look natural with the visuals and especially music playing during the titles.

There are certain fonts to avoid when designing your title to prevent a catastrophe from the beginning. Default fonts like Times New Roman, Courier and Comic Sans need to absolutely be avoided. Other fonts like Inkburrow seems to be everyone’s favorite

Keeping it simple is the easiest solution and perhaps the best solution for certain types of films. But short films are means for artists to show off and they usually do no less with the titles, in fact it’s an opportunity to show off a different skill set in graphic design and video editing, and they tempt to go a little crazy with them.

One thing to keep in mind throughout editing is to treat your film like a brand. Your title sequence should match your film’s style and feel, as it usually sets up the mood for the movie. Choose a suitable theme and style from your first posters, and try to maintain the look into you opening title sequence, and throughout the film up to the rolling credits.
