    Opening titles are typeset in Earth paired with Helvetica. Cameo appears in Eurostile as the ampersand in the “Written By” credit. The main title, Terminator 2: Judgment Day, is also typeset in Earth with a debossed steel effect. The infrared Terminator P.O.V. sequences feature type set in a somewhat crude redrawing (see Q and R) of what is probably meant to have been Bessellen, as used in the first Terminator film from 1984, with additional text typeset in Helvetica.

    The graphic design of the main titles is credited to Paul Olsen, with supervision by Ernest Farino. The Terminator P.O.V., video and graphic displays were made at Video Image (Rhonda C. Gunner, Richard E. Hollander, Gregory L. McMurry, John C. Wash).
