Chosen typography and name

Typography and Name
Name:
We found that the best name was 'Child's Play' which symbolised the fact that the two sisters had grown up together and were very close.

Typography:
After evaluating all the fonts we have come to the decision that the most suitable font for our movie opening would either be the font used in Sherlock Holmes as it suits the period or the font in the Woman in Black as it is rather gothic and suits our opening.We decided that the colours red, black and white would suit our opening the most after the colour research blog which outlined the best colours for a horror movie. The second title has a darker red which has more of an impact as it looks like splattered blood linking into the plot of our opening.


Changing Ideas: 
Although this was our original idea after research on IMDb we discovered that the name 'Childs Play' was too common, so common in fact that there was a movie in 2011 and there will be one coming out in 2014 so we could not use it.


This therefore caused a problem for us so we came up with a list of names drawing from the original list and from more recent ideas the main names involved were: 
- Her Darling Demon 
- Guilt 
- Sibling Rivalry 

We decided in the end that Her Darling Demon would be more suitable as it portrayed the plot of a girl killing her own sister out of love because her sister was possessed. This would be shown as the 'darling' suggests affection but 'demon' is more evil and suggests demonic forces. 

We also changed our font again as the first two didn't look very old fashioned, so we searched on dafont for more suitable fonts and found one that matched our opening, here it is: 



We finally decided that this would be our final product but either on black on white depending on what is more visible. We decided this because it is more classic and suits the time period as we don't want the don't to be too modern and then not match the Victorian time period it is set in.
