    Hi, I am somewhat new to the After Effects platform, and animation itself and for a recent project of mine, i need to create a text animation, similar to typography. My question is, what is the best way to replicate the same curved text animation as in the last second of this video. The words move along a imaginary sphere and then disappear. Thank you in advance,

    Sincerely, Michael

    I don’t see any movie. You may want to double check your link using the Preview Post button at the bottom of the text entry box.

    Michael, this looks like a very basic move on the Z and Y rotation properties.

    When i meant the transition in the last second i meant when it transitions from “funnest iPod ever” to “ipod Touch” i can seem to recreate that movement whether its using the camera or the rotation and keyframe. As i said before im quite new to Animation and am sorry if im being a burden but i greatly appreciate any help

    sincerely,
    Michael

    No camera movement. The only properties that are animated are Z and Y position and X-rotation. Animation isn’t easy. If you’re new, start with simpler moves until you master Spatial and Temporal keyframes, especially Temporal Keyframes and the Graph Editor.

    You may get more assistance if you were specific on what issues you are facing. Is the motion not smooth. Is the motion blur not looking right?
