Howls Moving Castle

 
I really like this movie and never really thought about the font that was used.  Just like normal I tried to use the Idenifont and it came up with AES, which is no where close to the font that was used on the cover.  So Identifont isnt totally acurate when it comes to some of the movie titles.  It is a San Serif font i would think that it is closer to Gill Sans, because of the thickness of the font and the way the M is above the base line.

Pen

 
This font is done by a calligraphy pen.  I really like how the letters have a flare on bottom of the letters and also the thin lines.  There is just something about the letters that feels of old times and some of the stuff that my grandpa does.  I know this isnt a typeface but i think it is still special in it own way. You still have to go back to the old ways to see what they did to understand where some of the type faces that we use now a days.
