You learn to rely on a few basic movements and use your voice to the greatest extent possible to convey your emotions. – Helena Bonham Carter

Katherine Matilda “Tilda” Swinton (born 5 November 1960) is a British actress. Known for her roles in independent films and blockbusters, she has received various accolades, including an Academy Award, a British Academy Film Award and a European Film Award, in addition to nominations for three Golden Globe Awards. Swinton began her career by appearing in experimental films starting with Caravaggio (1986), followed by The Last of England (1988), War Requiem (1989), and The Garden (1990). Swinton won the Volpi Cup for Best Actress at the Venice Film Festival for her portrayal of Isabella of France in Edward II (1991). She next starred in Sally Potter’s Orlando (1992), for which she was nominated for the European Film Award for Best Actress. She was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for her performance in The Deep End (2001), and followed this with appearances in Vanilla Sky (2001) and Adaptation (2002). For the film Young Adam (2003), Swinton won the British Academy Scotland Award for Best Actress. Swinton’s performance in Michael Clayton (2007) won her the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress and the BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role. Prior to this, she appeared in the film Constantine (2005), and subsequently had roles in Julia (2008) and I Am Love (2009). She won the European Film Award for Best Actress and received a nomination for the BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role for the psychological thriller We Need to Talk About Kevin (2011). Swinton has also played the White Witch in The Chronicles of Narnia series (2005–2010) and the Ancient One in the Marvel Cinematic Universe franchise.
I’m not so much interested in my character as the film itself. – Jeanne Moreau
Judy Garland (born Frances Ethel Gumm; June 10, 1922 – June 22, 1969) was an American actress and singer. Though critically acclaimed for many different roles throughout her career, she is widely known for playing the part of Dorothy Gale in The Wizard of Oz (1939). She attained international stardom as an actress in both musical and dramatic roles, as a recording artist, and on the concert stage. Renowned for her versatility, she received an Academy Juvenile Award, a Golden Globe Award, and a Special Tony Award. Garland was the first woman to win the Grammy Award for Album of the Year, which she won for her 1961 live recording titled Judy at Carnegie Hall. Garland began performing in vaudeville as a child with her two older sisters, in a vaudeville group “The Gumm Sisters” and was later signed to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer as a teenager. She appeared in more than two dozen films for MGM. Garland was a frequent on-screen partner of both Mickey Rooney and Gene Kelly and regularly collaborated with director and second husband Vincente Minnelli. Other starring roles during this period included Meet Me in St. Louis (1944), The Harvey Girls (1946), Easter Parade (1948), and Summer Stock (1950). In 1950, after 15 years with MGM, the studio released her amid a series of personal struggles that prevented her from fulfilling the terms of her contract. Although her film career became intermittent thereafter, two of Garland’s most critically acclaimed roles came later in her career: she received a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in A Star Is Born (1954) and a nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in Judgment at Nuremberg (1961).
Acting is not about being someone different. It’s finding the similarity in what is apparently different. – Meryl Streep

about Eiffel

The trigger for the development of this font was a design pitch for a new signage project for the Eiffel Tower in Paris. André Baldinger was invited by Intégral Ruedi Baur to create and contribute the typeface. It was required to serve two purposes: a large display variant for signs and a text variant for printed matter. During the research, it quickly became obvious that it was less the shape of the tower and more its structural elements that offered the most interesting starting point for the design. The characteristics of the structure are the square, the double square and a series of struts at six defined angles. This geometric form language was the starting point for the construction and design process. There were hardly any models which could have served as orientation. You have less leeway with a defined design principle than in free drawing. It was a tricky task with formal, aesthetic and technical problems to be solved, mainly for display variants. The Eiffel Level Air weight is part of the handful of typefaces worldwide with a stroke thickness of as little as 1 unit–light as air!

OpenType features include various Stylistic Sets: ss01 Negative Circled Numbers, ss02 Circled Numbers, ss03 Negative Framed Numbers, ss04 Framed Numbers.
