Change in Font Style

Even though I previously created font styles, they were too difficult to incorporate into the footage. So we thought that we would experiment by using a website known as 'Dafont'. We researched the fonts styles on this website and chose styles that we liked and therefore could use on our footage.  Our favourite style was called  'Travelling Typewriter' which I have shown above, we thought that this font would work well on our footage. However we came across many problems when trying to add this font to our filming. The freeze frame below shows the difficulties we faced when adding the font to our opening.

The image above is a freeze frame that we captured when working on the Macs. We found it extremely difficult and very complicated to add the simple style text. In order to add the text , we need to open the font in 'Fireworks' make the background transparent by deleting the white space, and then adding this new font to our freeze frame that we captured from our actual moving footage. When in the process of adding the font we realised that it simply didn't appear the way that we wanted it too, so as a group we decided to use the simple fonts of the programme that were editing our footage on, which was 'Imovie'.
