Lasio Grotesk is an animated sans serif typeface built for After Effects. Designed by Holke79, it draws from Paul Renner’s Futura, taking those classic geometric proportions and adding a more personal touch. Each character starts as a basic geometric shape and transforms over a 2-second animation.
What It Does
The typeface includes uppercase letters, numbers, and basic punctuation. Characters animate from simple geometric forms into their final letterforms, giving you ready-made typography motion without keyframing individual shapes.
Key Features
JSX typeface format. The plugin now ships in JSX format, a lightweight approach that integrates directly with Font Manager. This makes it easier to browse, preview, and apply animated type across projects.
Customizable appearance. Adjust the main color, frame color, and frame width. The typeface is optimized to work with Font Manager and the Animography Controller, so you can tweak these parameters without diving into composition layers.
Expression-driven masks. The typeface uses expression-driven masks under the hood, which you can fine-tune or animate further if needed.
Who It’s For
Motion designers working on title sequences, social media graphics, or any project where geometric type animations fit the aesthetic. Since it’s uppercase only, it works best for headlines and short text blocks rather than body copy.
Pricing
This product is no longer sold. When it was available, Animography offered a pay-what-you-want pricing model, with a suggested price around $7.99. Bundles of 4+ Animography typefaces qualified for a 25% discount.
