    One is from Season 4 of Teen Wolf during their advertisements.
    At the ending of the promo they have Can’t go back fading in with smoke then fading out, and then the Teen Wolf logo appears, then dissappears into Smoke, just like Can’t go back. Then at the last 2 seconds, the MTV logo fades in from smoke with a black and white color then yellow. Don’t know what im talking about?
    Then go to the video at 0:25

    Next: i got one from Season 5 of Catfish advertisements
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLdx2heMayQ
    Right in the beginning of the video, there is a title called Everyone Knows. (Time-stamp: 0:02)
    Where there is a Line that is blue, then text, then there is a highlight box that highlights all the text.

    Please send me projects of both of these, or tell me how to make them.

    Thank you

    That Teen Wolf smoke can be easily done by using an animated turbulent noise layer or smoke footage as a track matte for the text. So the text shows up with the smoke.

    Catfish thing can be easily done with an animated shape layer.

    So this also means that the matte smokes out too? Fades

    I’ll try and make a demo if I have time from other work.

    I appreciate it but thats not what i wanted, Can you find like a smoke video or something, then try to make what the video is doing, during the smoke, the MTV logo goes white so like vintage, then reveal its self.
    There is a text tutorial with the smoke effect, so maybe you can do it in logo form instead.

    Maybe you could try to do it yourself or pay someone to do it.
