Screenfonts: movie typography + Making of a 'Hello Brooklyn' video

It's a welcome addition to other observed efforts, including various Topher Welsh roundups of motion type on AETuts, the Motion Design Love series Nice Type Tuesday, the Typography Gallery at Motionspire, and Type Tuesday by Brad Chmielewski. See also Four techniques for combining fonts + type videos.
In a recent post on a video made to a remix of Jay-Z’s Hello Brooklyn, Screenfonts author Yves Peters noted that beyond the background on the precursor to Helvetica:
"What’s really interesting is that the author of the music promo also posted a Making Of… video, showing how still images were treated with the Vanishing Point feature in Adobe Photoshop, and Adobe After Effects, to create the illusion of motion and depth. The end result is very impressive."

Four techniques for combining fonts + type videos
- Use a palette with wit -- use typefaces with complimentary moods to evoke an energetic air
- Use a palette with energy -- mix typefaces from the same historical period whose families have different features
- Use a palette with poise -- mix typefaces with similar line quality if they offer different textures
- Use a palette with dignity -- mix typefaces with similar proportions and give each a different role
To see stuff in motion, check out the new roundup on AETuts by Topher Welsh, 25 Amazing Typography Videos, and part of series of round-ups by Motion Design Love, Nice Type Tuesday 10.
UPDATE: in late 2014 Lynda.com featured Foundations of Typography: Choosing and Combining Typefaces with Ina Saltz.

Free online font generators: YourFonts + FontStruct

YourFonts.com is a free online font generator that lets you make an OpenType font (Mac, Win, Linux) from your own handwriting. Fonts generated by YourFonts.com can be further improved with the associated High-Logic FontCreator.
Update: There's also, FontStruct, a free font-building tool by FontShop that lets you create fonts constructed out of geometrical shapes arranged in a grid pattern, like tiles or bricks. FontStruct then generates TrueType fonts for Mac or Windows.
Update 2: via Make Better Media is Flipping Typical, a possibly useful website that shows a phrase of your choosing in the popular typefaces you have on your computer.

The Ecofont uses up to 20% less ink
The Ecofont is developed by SPRANQ, based on a hunch of Colin Willems, which ideas for other savings:
• End-users: print only when necessary, use a modern, efficient printer and use unbleached paper.
• Graphic designers: use modern color separation techniques to avoid unnecessary wastage in ink. In paper choice, take the environment into account.
• (Offset) printers: avoid modern laser techniques that make ink indivisible from the paper. Keep an eye on innovations, such as plant-based ink.
• Printer manufacturers: invest in environment-conscious innovation.

CS3 fonts not in CS4

"Typefaces you might have seen in CS3 that aren't in CS4: Arno Pro, Bickham Script Pro, Garamond Premier Pro. Further typefaces bundled with InDesign CS3 but not InDesign CS4: Bernhard Modern Std, Caflisch Script Pro."
Care might be warranted in some cases; for example Garamond Premier Pro is now selling for $199.

Saul Bass, famous for design and film titles, is still a source of inspiration. Typographica notes resources and Bass-inspired fonts, including for the Hitchcock font, at Saul Bass Website and “Hitchcock” Font Are Back.

Font resources
Trish and Chris Meyer also covered fonts at CyberMotion. AE Portal may have additional items, well at least one, with Famous Fonts. I also liked another site mentioned in that AE list thread, Blue Vertigo which features links to color tools, sounds, icons, patterns and more.
