An amazing collection of revived vintage fonts, many of which were used in early cinema. Among them are faces based on the National Old Style, Colwell Handletter and Post Monotone no. 2. Only some fonts can be downloaded for free, although the entire collection is available on CD at an affordable price.
By using different types of font it enables to establish the time era in which the film was produced and what typical types of traditional features the film may posses, such as; The setting the film will be based in; The type of Genre and actors/actresses that may be staring in the film and other topics such as it can create a time period of a film( e.g. 1915s to 1950s).
Silentina
The Silentina font family is a great modern take on typography from silent film inter-titles. Designed by Ray Larabie in 2004.
Hitchcock was created by designer Matt Terich as an homage to the lettering style of the iconic Saul Bass. The font is available as a free download, and you’ll find a selection of other typefaces in the same vein.
Waltograph was created by Justin Callaghan in an attempt to capture the spirit of the familiar Walt Disney signage.
These are just some of the different typography designers which as you can see produce completely different types of text from Walt Disney to Movies and TV typography.
