    hi

    trying to create a simple effect basicly text or object which looks like it comes from behind or is being layed down onto a layer below
    think of a pitcher throwing a ball
    it comes from behind you dont see it until its thrown and then staying static on screen until next scene.
    make sense?

    When you don’t have 3-D compositing space then using scale (and possibly position) animation can create the sense of movement towards or away from the viewer.

    To have an object appear to some through another consider revealing it with an animated mask cmobined with some perspective distortion (corner pinning).
