Ladies and Gentlemen.
This is my first foray into public font production!
I am a huge fan of the 1927 sci-fi epic and masterpiece
METROPOLIS and am honouring it with a custom saber that is currently mid-build. I wanted a special font for it and so here it is.
This is an unusual font in that it is orchestral. Making it work was very tough with many sounds discarded along the way even after a ton of work.
But nothing else would capture the epic nature of the film nor do it justice but huge orchestral pads, steam, mechanical noises, electricity etc. There is not a single sound in the font that is not a real recording of a real-world instrument or object, although some of them have been highly processed. I was also acutely aware of John Williams' legacy in Star Wars, and was determined not to disgrace that either.

I hope you will add this to your collection and enjoy the unique results, I feel like it was well worth the effort in the end.
