#BEMBO TYPEFACE MOVIE#
The typeface is considered an excellent book font and is often used in movie and book titles to give an older appearance. Bembo is a readable and classical typeface because of its well-proportioned letterforms, functional serifs, and lack of peculiarities. It should also be noted that the typefaces “c” is slanted forward and the letters, m,n, and h have a recurve on the final stem. The typeface has diagonal stress, best seen in the letter o. The Bembo typeface is characterized by its calligraphic style, best pronounced through its serifs. This font is very similar to the New Times Roman font that is also very famous in this modern era.
The designer of this font is Francesco Griffo and this font is published through Monotype Corporations. Bembo is an old-style serif typeface that is based on a design cut by Francesco Griffo in 1495 and named after Pietro Bembo, the author who’s book the typeface first appeared in. Bembo Font is an old-style serif typeface. The typeface that I have been assigned is Bembo. This week in my typography class, we began project 3 which will have us researching a randomly assigned typeface and creating an eight-page, full-color brochure on it. This Art 230 project challenged me to design a poster using only Bembo Book MT Pro typeface as the design element.
