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 and W
the lower ending of the stem of the J is tapered off

I did a comparison of Twentieth Century Pro Bold Italic, that Mvp Web Pro suggested. And turns out they are quite close, but not an exact match.



Since my initial comparison of Futura LT HeavyOblique and the screengrab and this one are that close, I'll answer my own question and close the question.

Thanks for the help!

I checked your screen capture out on 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 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.
