flatening a cylender

[Colin Braley]

It wouldnt be truly 3d (as in you cant use an After Effects camera to fly around it) but you could do it with displacement mapping. Just use an image of a gradient to displace the text layer. If you need more in depth instructions just post a response and I’ll help out.
