It's like something you've never heard before. Chronicle Books will be publishing a book celebrating the audio experience of the
Star Wars saga. Written by bestselling author J.W. Rinzler and packaged by becker&meyer!,
Star Wars: Sounds From a Galaxy Far, Far Away... is the behind-the-scenes story on how award-winning sound designer Ben Burtt developed the rich mosaic of sounds through all six movies. There is also a section dedicated to the sound of the latest incarnation of
Star Wars,
The Clone Wars. The book also features a state-of-the-art audio module that allows readers to hear the actual sounds while learning of their origins. The book's lavish design includes clear markers that direct readers in using the module.
Star Wars: Sounds From a Galaxy Far, Far Away... is slated for release the fall of 2010. It will have over 200 pages, feature more than 300 color photos, and has a foreword by Ben Burtt.
