5th Typophile Film Festival Opening Titles

Typophile Film Festival 5 Opening Titles from Brent Barson on Vimeo.



Beautiful handcrafted type treatment trailer by BYU design students and faculty, for the 5th Typophile Film Festival. I love the tactile-ness of the typefaces, and according to the post, everything in the film is real—no CG effects. HT to art director Jennifer Lai for shooting this my way.
