FilmFont tools
What these are
Two free tools, no login: one estimates what a font license costs for a video project, the other looks up the fonts behind famous film titles.
- Font Licensing Calculator: Pick a font tier and a usage scenario. Estimate licensing cost across MyFonts, Adobe Fonts, Creative Market, and Monotype, plus the litigation risk for the wrong choice.
- Font ID by Film: A searchable database of famous films and the fonts used in their title cards, posters, and key art. Identifications triangulated from Fonts In Use, designer interviews, and frame analysis.
