Hey, Nanner... Here's a link to the ROTJ trailer on FileFront, just for you.

Coov, thanks so much for the compliments. You know how much I admire your work, so that means a lot coming from you. Thanks again.

Laserschwert, I'm not sure if you're referring to the first trailer I made, ROTJ, or chronologically the first trailer of ESB. Haha... Damn the Star Wars timeline!

But anyway, just for anyone who may have missed it, for ROTJ I used one track all the way through called "Tarawa" from the Snow Falling On Cedars soundtrack by James Newton Howard.

For ESB, it was a little more complicated:

The very first thing you hear is about 20 seconds of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.

Then I used a stock orchestra and choral rise cue until Anakin wakes up from the dream.

It then goes to a track called "Hymn (choir)" from Immediate Music, which is a company that records music exclusively for trailers, on their CD (that they send to movie studios) called "Themes for Orchestra and Choir". You've heard their stuff on the trailers for Chronicles of Narnia, X-Men III, Spider-Man 2, and hundreds of others. You can't buy their music, but if you know where to look, you can find 'em.

Then there was a mixture of a few other orchestral/choral rises to get that chaotic, what Commander Courage refers to as "white noise" sound.

Then, it goes to another Immediate Music track called "Final Omen 2.0 (choir)".

More "white noise".

Then when the title comes up, it transitions to Lisa Gerrard (the chick who did Gladiator) in a track called "Shadow Magnet".
