I want actors names to come up in the opening, followed by a short title flashing across the screen, which each new name scattered somewhere else on the screen in the negative space that the clip has. I want the text to fade in and out, with the main colours probably being white and black, or maybe streaks of dark red. Hopefully these quite natural colors will add a sense of tension.
The fonts I have looked at are shown below, all quite similar in that I want to use some sort of distortion and broken letters to emphasis the cautiousness of the seen, with maybe a change of font for when the screen cuts to the family household. I want the font to be positioned so that it looks like it is part of the scene, as if printed on the wall and is made to blend in a little.
The opening title sequences for True Detective are what have influenced me most, as I like the use of the titles positioned in negative space, and the use of slightly rough and disordered text.
