Variable Weight Wave
A smooth wave of font weight rolls through the letters, swelling each one from hairline to black and back while the word reflows. A signature look of variable-font specimens, type foundry promos and editorial title cards.

Tool-agnosticAnimate the word [TEXT] as a variable-font weight wave. Set it huge and centered in a condensed display sans on warm off-white paper. A smooth sinusoidal wave of weight travels through the letters from left to right, each letter swelling from a hairline to an ultra-black weight and thinning again, so the word reflows and breathes while staying on one baseline. Letters tint from ink black to vermilion as they reach full weight. Midway, all letters swell to black together and hold for a beat, then the wave runs back the other way and thins everything out. Frame it like a type specimen: thin blue guide lines at baseline and x-height, small monospace axis labels, and a live weight number under each letter. Calm, rhythmic, seamless loop.
