Aims For Graphics/Graphic Overview

The aims for our graphics revolves around the idea of the conflict between two evils in the narrative of our production. The protagonist has the choice of giving in to the police, who at the time are ignorant to the situation and suspect him of murder, or proving his innocence but fighting against both the police and the people who attempted to set him up. This idea of polar opposites is something we wish to convey and decide on early in our research and planning, as for the ancillary tasks we will be able to talk about iconic and recognisable branding. We also wish to convey the idea of a cityscape, which can be seen in the below font, taken from the film Cabin Fever. By relating these two ideas, from that of the city to choosing the lesser of two evils, we will be able to create a recognisable font and branding which can transcend the graphics of our trailer to the posters, magazine covers and the very narrative graphics within the narrative of the trailer.

The scratches and erosion marks in the font will obviously be covered up as they are more usually connoted to genres such as horror, with gore and monsters very usually an associate of these types of film.
