As part of his diploma work, Berlin-based Tino Meinert created “Liquid Type”. “Liquid Type” is a series of animated 3-dimensional letterforms created around “the topic of digital type and what makes it different from the real thing.” As he describes on his website, to give his letters dimension, Meinert “[assigned] a height vector to ‘flat’ image pixels.” This technique, called Displacement Mapping, gives the “surface a more natural look” by raising the brighter areas and leaving the darker areas undisturbed.
