Fonts and Title Design for Film and Television
Graphic fonts by Christopher King – Designed for cinematic title treatments, used and trusted by global entertainment brands.
Inspired by a childhood filled with comic books, films, and endless drawing, my 20-year career has spanned projects that include traditional publishing, video games, album covers, and commercial brands. Along the way I’ve developed skills in illustration, graphic design, and motion graphics.
Recently, a focus on the world of film and television has led to collaborations with major studios on cinematic title designs and branding for the likes of Marvel, Disney, and Universal Studios. I work independently from my home studio in rural Somerset, and look for projects that share my handmade, fun-loving, and retro aesthetic.
Screen Icons
From blockbuster films to indie press, my fonts have appeared on screens big and small. You might have already seen Endless Sunrise putting the ‘She’ in She-Hulk— its brush script design blazing across the logo. I often spot my fonts in unexpected places, but nothing beats the thrill of seeing them at work in main titles and trailers, such as the recent horror remake Wolfman and Marvel’s Venom: Last Dance.
Recent client work includes a collaboration to announce the revamped Apple Arcade, as well as title design concepts for Amazon’s Red One and the Netflix series Senna. I’m proud to see my fonts used by fellow illustrators to complement their own work too—such as in the amazing poster art by Phantom City Creative promoting one of my all-time favourite films, The Return of the Living Dead.
The Wall of Inspiration
Riffing on the expression “to hit a wall,” my blog is full of inspirational posts designed to offer a boost when your creative energies are running low. It’s a random collection including snippets from my sketchbook or examples of my fonts in use, mixed with client projects, book recommendations, vintage magazines, and other cool finds that have somehow fed into my work. Enter and indulge in a hodgepodge of design greatness, and check in now and again when you need a little top-up!
Where to Buy / Product Licenses
You can find me wherever good fonts are sold, with licenses to suit any project.
Most customers require a commercial license when they use fonts and graphics in their own projects intended for sale. A variety of licenses are available that cover specific uses such as desktop, webfont, ePub or app. Picking the right license will depend on the size of your project and potential audience, and can be tailored to suit your needs when you purchase.
I’ve partnered with the leading marketplaces to offer my products with flexible licenses to suit the way you work. For example, Creative Market offers simple one-off purchases for individual projects, whereas, Myfonts or Envato offer subscription models that can be a hassle-free solution for studios with multiple employees and projects that span print, broadcast and online.
