EXTENSION: Fonts Used By Films Which Appeal To Me


From looking at the title of this film, 'Dorian Gray', you can tell that the theme of the film is of no comedy but of a serious matter. The serif font - which has the extra detail at the end of each stroke of every letter - adds a more formal atmosphere to the film and suggests it is more suitable for older viewers. The title shows the reflection of the yellow effect from the image it is on which adds character. Also, as it is more or less transparent, it comes across as fragile and therefore important for the viewer.
The title is positioned in the center of the image towards the bottom. This demonstrates the importants of the title and also, the dominance of the man shown on the image as the positioning of the title suggests he is 'Dorian Gray'.
