Trailer Title Manipulation Practice

 

I have been told to produce two titles which has two different representations of horror. These titles were created through Adobe Photoshop, and I used two different texts. The texts I've used are as follows:

 First title: http://www.dafont.com/cold-night-for-alligators.font?text=psychosis

Second title: http://www.dafont.com/friskyvampire.font?text=psychosis

For the first title, I have chosen to make it like this, as I intend to give off a gory kind of vibe through this typography. I wanted to give off the effect that it was a bloodstained title, through the dominance of red. I have also applied a Gaussian blur effect behind this typography not only to keep ti from looking bland, but to also make it seem that the blood is smeared behind the text. The dripping effect also helps to create that blood effect I was looking for, as it looks like the blood is dripping off the text. To help emphasise the gory effect of this photo, I believe that using blood would be the main focus of this, as in a lot of gory horror films, you would expect blood more than anything else.

In this title, I have used a motion blur effect behind the text to help suggest a unstable mind.
