Here the words have been used to create an image, with the help of a couple of horns and a tail, of what appears to resemble the Devil. This is highlighted by the fact that only the words ‘the Devil’ are in red, as are the horns and the tail.
Again the title creates an image that reflects the title ’27 Dresses’ and it intertwines with the image of the actress. Although it the image includes written information about the film that people tend not to pay much attention to, the title is made clear through its pink font.
The style of the title for the film ‘Blindness’ embodies the witty satirical image of an eye test chart and the caption underneath includes the word ‘vision’ as a pun on the title.
Although the font is not particularly original or inspiring, the fact that the reflections show what seem to be silhouettes gives a mysterious aura to the poster.
The font of the title for ‘West Side Story’ looks almost mechanical and rusty, with the gaps and distortion in the letters and the images of the staircases and people, the impression is given that the title appears almost as a building.
Although this is not a particularly good example of typography, the background is very relevant to the film. What with the gritty appearance of the poster - the holes torn in it and the worn appearance of the chequered pattern and font, the viewer expects something more than what the title gives away.
