Title of movies



It's quite funny when I just need 10 minutes to edit the font follow the title of The Lord of the rings but I did spent 20 minutes before to find the similar fonts by identifont.com. Because the title just contents 12 letters, it's hard to identify, then I just click"not sure " all the time, lol.

Here are some fonts that I found:

CR Cartier
Agfa Rotos Semi_serift
ITC Souvenir
Daily News BQ
Photina
Arnhem

I chose the font ITC Souvenir that is available on Illustration. The only difficulty is to make the text smooth.


I also tried another title "Gone with the wind". It has 2 main words Gone and Wind then I resized them. I wanted to create the balance too, therefore I make the G and the D bigger than the others. Rage Italic is chosen because it has the soft and the wave style of the wind.

Well done on the LOTR typography!

On the Gone with the Wind, one thing to keep in mind with scripts is that it doesn't look good in all uppercase AND this is an instance where it might be better to have two fonts: Script for "Gone" and "Wind" and something plainer for the other words. Have a play with it.
