Good font to use for rolling credits

[Ed Dooley]

The whole mission of a film title company is to make *their* movie titles not look like every other movie.
The main thing to consider is what the format is. If you’re making a real movie, where the resolution is film resolution, not video resolution, then it’s not as critical as if your end use is TV. Fine line serif fonts look great on film, but are terrible when they’re interlaced on TV.

[Nic Hubbard] “I am trying find what font is used for a good majority of movie rolling credits. Does anyone know? I really want the credits to look like a real movie, I have used Helvetica, but I don’t think it looks right, any suggestions?”

[Matt Sandström]

futura is one of the most common.
