Typography for opening credits

 As I am basing my documentary style on Dawn Porter, I feel it would be effective to replicate the typography used in her documentaries. I have decided to call my piece 'VIV GETS REEM' to copy the sharp, punchy titles Dawn uses such as 'Dawn gets a Baby' and 'Dawn gets her man'. I would like to use the same font style as Dawn but make the word 'REEM' stand out and link to the Essex fashion trend the 'vajazzle'. This then ties in effectively with 'The Only Way is Essex' glamorous opening titles.

This is the first design I tried for the opening credits. I used Impact font for 'VIV GETS' to replicate Dawn Porter's documentaries. I then used separate diamonds to spell out 'REEM'. I feel this looks effective and fits in well with the image I am trying to create.
