Film title design

Hey kiddo! Have you ever noticed that before a movie starts, there are words displayed on the screen that tell us the name of the movie? That's what we call the film title. Now, have you ever wondered how those letters and words are written and designed? That's what we call the film title design.

When someone is creating a film title design, they are trying to make the letters and words look interesting and match the mood or theme of the movie. They use different fonts, sizes, colors, and even special effects to make it stand out and look cool.

For example, if we were making a title design for a spooky Halloween movie, we might choose a creepy font and use dark colors like black and purple to make it look scary. If it were a funny comedy movie, we might choose a whimsical font and use bright colors like yellow and orange to make it look playful and fun.

Sometimes, designers also add special effects to make the title look more dynamic. They might make the letters move or change shape, add shadows or 3D effects, or animate the title in some way to grab our attention.

So, now you know that creating a film title design means making the words at the beginning of a movie look super cool and match the movie's mood. Pretty cool, right?
