Film credit font
Hi,
I am working on a student project and I'm looking to get that cramped up credit font at the bottom of movie posters. I.e. have a look at: http://www.imdb.com/gallery/ss/0364725/Ss/0364725/Onesheet_text.jpg?path=gallery&path_key=0364725
the font displaying the "20th century fox, written & direct by" etc. Anyone know how to do that?

'Ohrada', by Frantisek Storm, maybe.?
A very condensed upper case alphabet which can be used to design film posters..
( Said that, you could even just use a very, very condensed version of Univers or similar.. )

I work for an entertainment design agency that does movie posters - typically we use either
(Univers) U39, U49 usually it is vertically stretched as well.

I need the same this and like some of the examples but like most indie filmmakers I'm broke. Where can I get something like this for free? My DVD amerey is complete but the text for the bottom credits looks bad. Please help.
