with:
-f lavfi -i nullsrc=s=1280x720 = Creates a background 1280x720 video frame (using lavfi virtual device capabilities)…
-vf = .. Start video filters...
drawbox=t=fill = … and draws a black box over it (default color is black)…
drawtext=_FX/fonts/News-Gothic-Bold.otf:textfile=starwars.txt:fontsize=50:fontcolor=0xb89801 = ... adds on top the ”starwars.txt” text, using the “News Gothic bold” font size 50 in color 0xb89801 (yellow). Make sure you have the paths correct to both the text and font files!
x=(w-text_w)/2:y=h-25*t = … placing the text at the center (x = horizontally) and moving it up (y = vertically) by 25 pixels per seconds (t)…
drawbox = ... then draws now a 3 pixel black frame around the video…
perspective=350:190:930:190:-600:H:W+600:H:sense=destination = … and adds perspective to the whole… TIP: Check out my perspective tutorial video for more info!
drawbox=0:0:1280:75:t=fill = ... adds one black bar at the top…
drawbox=0:654:1280:75:t=fill = … and one at the bottom of the video to give it a «letterbox» cinematic look…
-t 70 = ... making the video last 70s long…
output01.mp4 = … … and outputting the final result to file «output01.mp4»

It is a period of civil war.
Rebel spaceships, striking
from a hidden base, have
won their first victory
against the evil Galactic
Empire.
During the battle, Rebel
spies managed to steal
secret plans to the Empire’s
ultimate weapon, the
DEATH STAR, an armored
space station with enough
power to destroy an entire
planet.
Pursued by the Empire’s
sinister agents, Princess
Leia races home aboard her
starship, custodian of the
stolen plans that can save
her people and restore
freedom to the galaxy…
