Font Styles

Horror Style Font - The font I chose to use as an example is called "House Of Horror". I thought this font would best fit this genre because it has that eerie feel about it; the font also has that paint splatter/blood splatter effect which adds to the horror theme. The text suggests to me that the Horror will include quite a bit of gore (e.g. Blood, guts, etc.) and could possibly have a few things that might put the viewer on edge such as violence, which is expected in any horror movie. The "House Of Horror" font has the sort of persona that has a dark, hidden and insane side but also has that murderous feel to it as well. This font comes across as being fearful, horrific, mysterious and extremely creepy.


Romance Style Font - For this genre I chose to use an example that is called "Janda Romantic". This font appealed to me out of the rest because the style reminds me of Romeo and Juliet; this adds to the romantic feel to the font because of the tragic love story between the two lovers. The font gives the expression/feel of being floaty, the kind of feeling when you feel in love, the curls in the lettering also gives off that it is a kind of fairy tale themed romance. The "Janda Romantic" font has the persona that has a love struck, floaty and bubbly side to it but as well as that it has a  kind of gothic style to it too.
