In the brief for Brighton Lights, it didn't specify on specific colour and font so it was down to me to decide on what to use. Initially I wasn't to sure on how I wanted it to look, however I knew that I wanted to keep it clean and simple.
Looking through the fonts in Photoshop, I found these two to be clear, simple and easy to read. I had in mind of trying to resemble the Hollywood sign and found that these two fonts to look quite similar.


The first font that I looked at was 'Impact' and I tried it all in capitals and then in upper case and lower case. The three colours that I picked out to use was green, red and blue, I thought that they were simple and clean colours which would easily work.

The second font which I looked at was 'Haettenschweiler'. I did exactly the same thing as the 'Impact' font to see what it would look like. I think that I prefer this font out of the two and I think it would work well with the idea of trying to copy the Hollywood sign.


I then had a go at setting out the letters in a slight wave so that it looks like the Hollywood sign.
