The shaking off text thing….It looks like it was done by hand. Type each line out then just animate position, rotation, with 3d turned on of course. Overall this is not a very fast moving typography. Its more like an advertisement then typography. But anyways. There are some plugins that could do this, You could even do it with cc particle world….Listen up
Create a comp with a text, make it 1-3 frames long, in fact make all your lines of texts, lets say 10. Select them all, use animation- keyframe assistant -sequence layers. duplicate all layers and repeat this process until you think you have enough, should not need more than a second or 2. Precomp. Create a new solid and add cc particle world. go to particle-particle type-textured square. set texture time to birth, scale up birth and death sizes or it will look invisible, max opacity…etc. start birth rate at some number and animate it to zero over a few frames….watch your animation. Hope you understand, and hope it helps.

Ah yes, the write on effect. It is very difficult to draw curves without paths. So first draw a mask in the shape of a checkmark, just one line right in the middle for the path to follow, hit m to bring up masks, select the mask path, copy and paste onto the brush path. Similiarily you could draw the path in illustrator and paste it in the same way. Then animate the size of the stroke, make sure size is selected.
If your path does not look right after the effect is applied you will save more time by redrawing the mask rather than moving brush path points around. also check transparent background for the write on effect. Oh and these are not vector so create one in its own comp and shrink it rather than scale up/

Does it have to be After effects ray traced 3d. its so slow, so time consuming. You could use element 3d, cinema 4d, or even the faux 3d effect we all know so well. Or, don’t make it 3d at all. 3d doesn’t necessarily make everything better.

Why would you have to mask anything? Cant you just change the original color of the text by letter?
-
Have you tried it in mocha. Can you reshoot with tracking points on paper? Or have you tried the track camera. It does more than just track the camera

I actually have had this problem a lot in the past. Its either the updates or you don’t have much free space on your computer.

Im stumped without seeing it. Have you checked or uncheck continually rasterize? No time remapping or stretching? If you solo the plant and render do you still have the same problem. What about the plant itself, is it a psd, illustrator. Maybe if you convert it to another format?

There does not have to be a camera. On the composition window make sure main camera is selected and not the front.
-
This. Your camera is probably on front. which is different from the main cam. Either that or you could turn off the 3d of the plant layer, if its on.
