Here it is. Composed for TV. (4MB, Quicktime)

With apologies to Brad.

Hmm... I think you could've made that in Flash. [Big Grin]

Yes! Stingers are where it's at! I'm with Strube... should have been in the ultra-friendly and highly usable Real Player format.

At least he used Trajan.

Hooked me. I wanna see it. What's the release date? [thumbsup]

Oh Tim, I must slap you now. [puke]

(At least you could get a job in a heartbeat cutting trailers with that as your demo reel.)

"In world where the almighty dollar rules, one man stands above the rest, get ready for the ride of your life... Kane coming soon to a theater near you" Where's Don La Fontaine when you need him?

Nice work, Tim! [beer]

The movie would have been a hit with that trailer, Tim! [Wink]

Pretty funny.

I thought Citizen Kane was rated PG.

Trajan Pro no less. But the actual title card itself was set in Impact. Thank you, Tim, for not distorting Trajan to make it fill the same condensed space as Impact.

ROFL!!

Bobby, you nailed it, pal! Exactly, on all counts. I'm impressed.

Thanks, guys, I'm glad everyone is having some fun with it. [Wink]

This isn't a hobby of mine, really. I just decided to rib a few people before dinner. [Razz]

Good catch, John. [thumbsup]

Biggest difference between Trajan Pro (an OpenType font with Postscript outlines) versus the older Trajan Postscript Type 1 font is the new version is a true "small capitals" typeface. The old version was capitals only.
