    Does anyone knows how to do this in Sony Vegas? Is it possible? ‘Cause in this video they did it in After Effects.

    It depends on how sophisticated you want to be. The text in that clip just swayed back and forth so you could do this in Vegas by tracking it manually with keyframes. It would be very time consuming which is why most people use motion trackers like the ones found in After Effects and Boris FX/RED.

    If you wanted 3D text to turn with the scene then you’d need a way to create the 3D text video outside of Vegas as Vegas cannot import 3D objects like After Effects can. If you really want to get into doing this sort of thing and can’t afford After Effects, look at Boris Graffiti. It can produce 3D text and Motion Track it as well. There is a trial download on the Boris FX site.
