I tried to emulate the original tagline as well as I could using the ITC Serif Regular font, with -75 negative tracking for that typical 70s ‘tight but not touching’ look. © 1983 Lucasfilm – Title on the original Star Wars: Return of The Jedi one sheet – Click the image to see the complete poster on IMPAwards. The tagline was probably hand-lettered in a heavy sans serif style based on the Star Wars logo the credits are set in the ITC Avant Garde® Gothic typeface, another ’70s stalwart. The somewhat awkward shapes of the ‘R’ and the two ‘S’s make it seem as if they were specifically drawn for this purpose, because they connect seamlessly to the lines of the frame.

#Star wars intro text maker movie
On this poster it is integrated into a border running around the movie title. Originally designed by Suzy Rice, the logo was revised by Joe Johnston, and then outfitted with a new ‘W’ by Rice again. After it already had been featured at the beginning of the opening crawl and on the teaser poster for the first movie, the classic Star Wars logo finally shows up on the main theatrical poster – again with an illustration by Tom Jung. © 1980 Lucasfilm – Tagline on the original Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back one sheet – Click the image to see the complete poster on IMPAwards.īy the time the Empire strikes back in 1980, Antonio DiSpigna’s geometric glyphic sans has disappeared from the promotional materials. While the logo was custom-drawn by Ralph McQuarrie in a blocky sans serif mimicking the perspective of the opening crawl, the tagline and credits were set in ITC Serif Gothic. Those famous words also found their way on the poster for the original 1977 movie (which revisionist young punks insist on calling Episode IV – A New Hope) with classic artwork by Tom Jung. The sight of the yellow text – set in the Trade Gothic® typeface – disappearing into the far reaches of space is guaranteed to send shivers along the spine of any self-respecting sci fi aficionado (unless they’re a Trekkie of course). It precedes the iconic opening crawl at the beginning of the epic space opera: an introduction that sets the story for each film. “A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…” This line – one of the most well-known sentences in pop culture – has left an indelible mark in our collective consciousness.
