Which Font To Use For A 'Star-Wars' Type Intro?
I am trying to create a 'Star-Wars' type intro to my movie (i.e. where the text scrolls up the screen and disappears towards a vanishing point in the distance).
I wanted a 'Lord of the Rings' type look so I tried using Apple Chancery as the font. It looked great on my Mac playing the movie from within iMovie, and on Preview in iDVD.
But when I burn to DVD, the finished result is very poor, with very severe artifacts on the scrolling text, to the point where it is difficult to read it on my TV.
What can I do to improve this? Anyone know another good font I could use for a similar effect, or technique to improve the quality?
Is there a 3rd party plug-in or app I could use to create the effect and then import to iMovie?
Why is the quality of text over black so bad on the final DVD, ads I have notived all of my titles, including those on video clips and photos, look much less sharp on the final DVD than the preview....
thanks
