May I suggest that it would be a good idea to post the Sintel logo and logotype on Typophile's design forum... http://www.typophile.com/ It's where a lot of top typographers and design professionals hang out.

I've taken liberties with the spelling and phonetics of the movie's title for a number of reasons... - Syndel sounds and looks more 'old world' than Sintel - makes it more plausible as a person's name - avoids association with Intel and any consequent jokes - the Y and D letter forms are more attrac...
