Bending Text
I am creating a intro with zooming text and would like to know how I would cause an effect where the text would enter from one side of the screen and bend getting smaller and smaller as it flies out of sight. Any suggestions????

Not sure if you mean bending as in literally bending or simply dissapearing into the distance. If you want it to dissapear into the distance I would simply write some text, then click the little 3D cube next to the layer which gives you x,y and Z axis as well as three rotational axis.
Now if you rotate your text slightly on the Y axis by, say, 45 degrees you’ll find that on one side the text is larger and on the other small. That’s the 3D effects that AE can fake.
Now all you have to do is animate the X-Anchor position and your text will come in and out of the distance. Play with the Y-rotation etc to see what other ways you can point the text.
Good luck
Alex
