    Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t the intro to lost just the word “Lost”? On a black background? Doing very little of interest or excitement?

    I understand but I dont know how to edit it just like it does in the intro.

    The turning and effect that it comes to you slowly.

    Im just a beginner at this and I always wanted to know how I should do that intro.

    Greetings, Karel.

    Fair enough I guess, I was wondering if I was really thinking of the right thing.

    Anyway it is pretty simple; in After Effects you’d use a text layer, make it 3d, then animate the rotation & position as desired.

    If I remember the title correctly, it also blurs/changes focus as it moves, which you could do with a camera effect, but would be easier animating a ‘fast blur’ effect on the text layer.

    For help understanding After effects 3D layers check out this, and the After Effects cow forums.
