Bobby’

Arr, promotion copy yes well that’s the only thing that makes sense, how does the image look, seeing it’s a direct digital transfer from the digital High Def.

Also does anyone remember this, the two Canadians that stole Star Wars episode 2 Attack of the clones…?

Bobby didn't see it. Leave poor Bobby alone.

Anyway it looks exactly like Episode 2 which was shot in HD. Things have fuzzy edges because of the compositing, and this even shows up in the low-res DVD. Blue screen sucks my ass.

Yes I noticed that when “Obi-Won” is fighting “Jango-Fet” what ever his name is, not sure if it’s the rain that’s making the image look a bit queer around the edges, I can deal with it Joe’ remember what the early days of visual effects "Voyage dans la Lune, Le/A Trip to the Moon" by "Georges Melies" looked like, groundbreaking technology in my books, in fact there’s still plenty of magic to play with.

Film is going to stay around for many years still to come, until it retires.

Here is a DTS logo I made in Adobe's brand new program called "Illustrator", now available at a supermarket near you:

Almost there but not quite. Though it is 20x better than the one on the previous page (Ug). Still waiting for Bobby.

Damn, Joe. Don't you have the Optima font family on your machine? Gotta use the right font for those "Digital Surround" letters.

Not that it will be necessary. Check your e-mail. I've finally sent you some things, with type converted to outlines no less (makes that PC to Mac platform jump easier).

**Checks fonts**

Well I'll be damned. Optima is an exact match! I just stumbled on Lucia Grandee first because L comes before O, and it looked fairly close to Lucia.

Thanks for the e-mail!

PS - Picking fonts in Illustrator sucks ass! It's a drop down menu! SUCK!

Joe’

Wow that’s getting pretty close, what are you using to create this?

And by the way Joe’ has it all ready, but for some of you that may have joined the dark side, it’s only 8 days to go now soon it will be the magic 7 days or 1 week…LOL

I’m getting so very excited, I’m going to give this film one hell of a six-track Dolby Stereo digital surround-EX presentation with the (Sonic Whole Overhead Sound) and the Lucasfilm THX sound system, this is going to be a forceful evening, with Saturday 5th 2005 “STAR WARS DAY” all films presented in…six-track Dolby Stereo surround-EX (Sonic Whole Overhead Sound) and the Lucasfilm THX sound system…. [thumbsup] [Big Grin]

By the way I’ve seen a lot of dts logos all over the internet, if you just type “dts logo” in Google and hit image search there’s a lot of dodgy ones, and a few legitimate ones, Joe’ your not posting these all over the internet are you LOL...?

Checkout this transparent dts logo…

Andy, that DTS logo linky is slow and then the image stinks. A white beveled "dts" logotype on a white background? Okay.

Here's a decent one I created:
Cool DTS Logo

Just don't tell anyone on Wall Street about the 8 day work week. The 'raiders there will cream their slacks over the possibility of fitting TWO 4-10 work schedules into one week! Wow! Just imagine the possibility -even more 401K retirement money going into the fund for us to steal! Joy-freaking-gasm!

To get back on topic, that "Star Wars" EP I thing will be strictly "480p, MPEG-2, DD 5.1 EX, 448kb/s" If someone wants to attach 70mm nomenclature to that they need a smack.
