Does anyone have this font or family of fonts?

ITC Franklin Gothic Demi Bold

If so, can I get it/them from someone?

Thanks ahead of time.

"Subtitles are currently being added to Star Wars: Episode I by Art Department Coordinator Blake Tucker. The translations are for Ben Burtt's Huttese language, the voice of choice among Mos Espa locals. The lucky font used is ITC Franklin Gothic Demi Bold, 69 point with -30 tracking, a match to the titles used in the original Star Wars Trilogy."

I downloaded that track a few days ago. The person who created the torrent included a few of the other rare tracks as well.

Here is the link and the description:

Here's four of the harder to get Star Wars soundtrack...tracks:

1. Duel of the Fates (Dialogue and Sound Effects version from The Phantom Menace Ultimate Edition Soundtrack)
2. On the Conveyor Belt (Target Exclusive bonus track from the Attack of the Clones Soundtrack)
3. Battle of the Heroes (with Dialogue) (Target exclusive download with Revenge of the Sith soundtrack purchase)
4. John Williams interview (Walmart exclusive download with Revenge of the Sith soundtrack purchase)

All in 192 kbps mp3 quality. This one's for the people out there who don't want to buy multiple copies of the same thing to get all the music; and also for those with Mac's who seem to be screwed out of the downloads altogether.

Enjoy!

Go buy the Revenge of the Sith Soundtrack - it's excellent!


You have to be a member to download this torrent. Unfortunately, Demonoid no longer accepts new members.

I think it is someone just trying to spread more rumors. Most of what he said has been explicitly denied by Lucasfilm, of course, that ain't saying much either.

It would be awesome if what he said were true. I didn't think that HD-DVD or Blu-Ray technology had become consumer-level affordable yet. Am I wrong? If not, and what that guy said was true, what makes Lucasfilm think that HD-DVD is going to become the new standard therefore ensuring sales of the next boxset?

I assume that they began work on the second death star while the first was still being constructed. Why would you build just one massive super weapon when you could build two? Or three? Or...you get it. So, even though there is no mention of it, I would assume that in the middle of building the first one, they chose another secret location to begin building another.

Bothan spies aren't the best source of information...the Empire could have easily been working on that thing a lot longer than the plans showed.

That's my explanation anyway. It hasn't really bothered me since I came up with that.

According to the OT, Leia remembered her mother a little bit. She said she didn't remember much more than feelings, but I still can't believe that she would have remembered her as a new-born. Even if you say it was because Leia felt her sorrow through the force it doesn't explain it. Luke would have been able to feel it too and he says he has no memory of his mother. The only practical explanation was that when the twins were split up, Luke was taken to Tatooine and Leia went with Padme and the Organas into hiding on Alderaan. Eventually something would cause Padme's death, but not before Leia had become a little girl and could have reason to have some memory of her mother.

The whole story of what happened to Padme would have made a great episode of the new TV series.

Lucas responsible for new trend in movie making

George has been working since the original Star Wars came to revolutionize movie making; it is not something he just decided to do with the prequels. I don't think it was a good idea for him to use the movies as experiments, but advancing technology was something that was very important to him.

More than anything else the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles was used as a testing board for all their newly develop techniques. I honestly believe by the time that the prequels were being made he felt that the technology had progressed to the point that the movies were going to be movies, not experiments.

As far as new versus old, I am nto arguing that new is necessarily better than old. What I have always argued though is that new can be a good thing. Before George, no one else had taken the chances with digital movie making. He caught a lot of flack for it, but in the end, others are starting to see some of the benefits. It is like the difference between VHS and DVD. You will always have people that prefer VHS (or standard-fullscreen), but does that mean that people shouldn't be making strides to come up with a better process for storing and watching movies? Now, there is a choice for movie makers. Will making this movie be better if done on film, or done digitally? Film tends to have a more classic feel, akin to the classic black & white movies. Digital is very crisp, but tends to make things a bit too surreal sometimes in my opinion.

The point is that just because someone comes up with a new way of doing things, it doesn't mean that you have to do it that way. No one is holding a gun to anyone's heads here. People like to keep doing things the way they are comfortable with, while others like to push the envelope. In all truth, we would be nowhere without people like George trying things a new way.

Just think of indoor plumbing! I'm sure someone thought at the time "Huh, wha duh a neeeed one ah dem fancee house crappers when a I gots tah hole woods to do mah business in?" Well, now you have choice...

As far as I know Lucas was the first to shoot a movie completely digital. The reviews of this process were mixed. Half said it was the wave of the future, other said that that digital couldn't capture the realism that film could. I thought that it would only be a matter of time until others started following his lead. Well, here it is.

Superman Returns.

Bryan Singer is using the Genesis camera to shoot his latest movie digitally. Apparently though, they have a problem with speed (getting the digital tape to the editor as fast as if it was shot on film). This hasn't been a problem with Star Wars, in fact it was the opposite. So, why is the production for Superman having this problem?

EIther way, the future of filmmaking is here.

Check out www.bluetights.net/ and watch blog #8 for a webcam discussion between Bryan and his staff about shooting digitally.
