Text Tornado

Eran says in the tutorial that it is recommended to add glow to the text. He neglected to say or show that this is not quite straightforward. Adding a glow or blur effect (I've tried two) make the layer lose its depth which means although it is placed around the actor/dancer it always appears as if its in front or behind him.
The solution is to add another tornado text layer and add a blur modifier to it rather than an effect and then use Screen mode to crate the actual glow.
