Title: Hive mind Font help needed.....
Post by: Buddy on 20 April, 2011, 09:36:25 PM
Hey people...

Trying to find the name of the font used for the actors names in this poster

http://therazorsmovie.com/img/ACTORZY_SEAGAL.jpg

I know it but just can't place it.... doesn't have to be an exact match... close enough will do.

Thanks in advance..

I think it's Gotham Condensed, but, TBH, Helvetica Neue Bold Condensed will pass muster with all but the nerdiest typophile.

Cheers!

Not sure about Gotham Condensed... def not Helvetica Neue Bold Condensed... that was the first I guessed... the tail coming from the R isnt straight on that..

It's only for a mess about project so doesnt have to be spot on.. but it would be good to get a match.

I;m kicking myself cause I knoew what it is but a bot of Vod is getting the better of me and I can't think straight!!


Cheers anyway.

Linotype Alternate Gothic No2 (http://new.myfonts.com/fonts/linotype/alternate-gothic-lt/no2/)

Looks spot on to me.

Cheers
