Wasn’t Nev working on something where he was trying to replicate the movement of the original
Star Wars crawl? I’d be great if you could replicate the speed, blur and shakiness of those original crawls in After Effects. Basically simulating all those little imperfections that give it character.

Yep, I had a version that was pretty similar to the original in timing, but for replacing a single word it might not even need that much work. It would just need a starfield tracked to the gate weave of the original and then just cut out the word ‘evil’ and replace it with ‘Sith’. This could probably be tracked automatically in AE with enough precision with the rest of the crawl as a sort of 3D surface negating the need for replicating the entire crawl shape for the project.

Is the font for ESB’s crawl text the same as the original SW? If so, I made a custom font that is almost pixel accurate to that one so it should work fine if anyone wants to use it.
