    The little pissant serifs on many fonts tend to flicker – so most of the titling you see is non-serif with enough stroke width as to not cause flickering – particularly horizontal strokes. Those are technical considerations – but, beyond that, it’s art and feel to match the content of the production. i.e. a comedy demands one font, a docu, another. Whatever you choose, be brave and, for God’s sake (and your cast)…readable.
