The text shows up by itself because it is the only item in the scene. Actually, I rigged up black planes to move past each other and reveal the text. Linked also to the leading edge of the planes was a light. On that light I placed a lens flare effect. That is the leading effect you see. The text is just the extruded spline i mentioned earlier. Lastly, the electric "fizz" left on the letters is just a lens effect glow in the video post that is set to electric style.

Is that what you were wondering?

Attached is the original scene file. They all are done in the same fashion.
