Today I watched a Ted Talk, and loved the presentation. In particular the font used.
I did some research and found out this looked like Futura. So I did compare the two, but there are subtle differences. See the image below.
I went through the most similar Futura fonts on myfonts, but can’t find the exact one. Anyone an idea what font/ Futura edition this might be?
Note:
- how the
O
is square even though this is italic- the significance width difference of the
D
,C
andW
- the lower ending of the stem of the
J
is tapered off(The Ted Talk: We can reprogram life. How to do it wisely | Juan Enriquez)
Answer
I checked your screen capture out on http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/
When I used all the recognizable characters, it didn’t find a match, but when I used only the “J”, it found it right away.
Try – Twentieth Century Pro Bold Italic
Looks like a match to me, using the “playbox” on http://www.fonthaus.com/fonts/monotypeimaging/Twentieth-Century/MI167349586
I just noticed your first example “LIFECODE” and the “E”, “F” and “C” do not seem to match up. Not sure if this is a different Font, or a variant.
Perhaps Twentieth Century Medium Italic with a Bold Added. The distinguishing question mark matches.
