About
This is Hichcut—a big, bold display font, it’s a play on Hitchcock and cut out (pretty obvious huh!).
It’s wholly inspired by the movie poster vertigo, Saul Bass, and Alfred Hitchcock - it’s a homage more than a slavish copy.
It's retro but modern at the same time.
Childlike but not childish
For Hitchcut, I wanted to have that childlike, playful look and feel. It’s letter shapes are simple and even border on crude.
Straight lines for everything, like it’s been cut out with scissors. This makes it very legible at any size, but it looks better at large point sizes.
Font Usage
Hitchcut is a bold display type, so you can use it for headlines, cards, invites, logotypes, magazines and, of course, movie posters. It's ultra bold style should lend itself to any kind of messaging, use it in all caps or in sentence case.

About Simon Stratford
Hello, that's me or itsmesimon, aka Simon Stratford. I design everything from custom typefaces for advertising agencies to ready to buy fonts for designers (like you) to the occasional digital oil painting for TV and print.
I've spent over 20 years in the design industry, from teaching photoshop, web design, movie promotion, and branding agencies to digital marketing—I think I've done most jobs. I got tired of the rat race and the daily commute in London. So I stopped doing things I didn't what to do—and started doing things I did want to do—more creative things.
So if you want to be part of my tribe, follow me on
Hire me
