    Do you want your video to replace what they have on the Nasdaq sign in the photo or just create the whole thing from scratch? Either way in After Effects you can use tools like distortion and liquify to make your video/images/whatever bend as if it were on a 3D curved sign. If you move your camera or rotate the image, however, this 3D illusion won’t work.

    Is that all you needed to know? If you need more help just ask.

    You might be able to use the CC Cylinder effect within AE, but matching the perspective of the shot might be a pain. I found it easier to do in Lightwave.

    … and if the camera moves in the shot, you’ll need a 3D tracker such as Syntheyes to line things up properly. You’d still have to use a 3D app in that case.
