Typography research

http://www.alwayswatching.net/features/great-scenes-television-and-film-told-using-only-typography
This website tells famous and classic films ONLY through the use of typography and sound. I thought this would be brilliant for research.

I thought "The fight club version" was the most effective. It was the particularly engaging with the use of animation. The use of script and diegetic sound is flawless, and having no visuals heightens the sound and entices the viewer's imagination. The lettering becomes more broken up with "splattering" effects, which imitates the use of graffiti, to reflect the voice over. Different colours are used for different characters so that the conversation is clear and easy to follow. Different font sizes are also used to dramatise certain words.
