If you don’t want to redo the animation in AE, I would just use screen capture software to turn it into a movie, and edit it in AE to find the loop point.

If I get your idea correctly, you’ll need two layers of Yeah.mov. One gets the top half mask, the other the bottom half mask. Then you animate them separately. Does that help?

Hey Dion, you should post for the community your solution – so others can learn from you!
This doesn’t need to be done with cameras at all, I don’t think. I can see it as just keyframing the scale, rotation, and position, with a wiggle expression thrown in.
The key is that the initial comp, that the text and “scribbling” and BG are in, is much larger than the final comp that this will be nested into. Then you just keyframe the animation!

Keyframing this by hand, while not impossible by any stretch of the imagination, certainly wouldn’t look as natural as using a sine wave decay expression like John’s above. Using this to control the horizontal scaling of the text only, with the anchor point right justified, should get you the yellow text effect you’re looking for.
