Helvetica Film

Helvetica Originates from Switzerland.The typeface was created in 1957. The Name Helvetica originates from the latin word for “Switzerland”. In English, it translates to “Switzerland Type”. Helvetica brought the Swiss design style into popularity. Other typeface design styles and movements were: Modernism, Grunge, and Post-Modernism. The film really went in-depth with the importance of type. Every designer seemed to have a slightly different standpoint on what it meant to be a good font but they all seemed to agree that a font must convey what it is promoting and it must be legible and relevant.
