I went on a search for at least 5 different fonts that i could incorporate into my opening credit sequence. In general i stuck with a Sans Serif font, yet did dabble with one serif and a more expressive font face. This movie does not scream out with big and raw typography, but instead it needs to be 'smart' in order to appeal to my audience of college age students and middle age. These fonts to the right are the ones that i would like to explore more in my creative process.

I think I'd stay away from Lithos... sorta has a "Jurassic Park" quality to it. Given the vibrant, intricate and sometimes complex nature of the visuals in the movie due to the locations in which it was filmed, I would suggest focusing on a lightly serif-ed typeface. Sans often gives a bold striking appearance, which may be in competition with the set complexity. Just a thought...
