hey all, i have a link to a video where the intro was made in AE. The editor said he used 3 plugins for the text into (first 10 seconds or so), and if I could get an ID on them that would be cool. Well rather, 2 of the plugins and any guesses or tips on how to get the swirly effect he got on the particular. thanks everybody :)

how weird before I deleted it because I sounded even more cocky, I had written "Trapecode Shine, 3d Stroke and Starglow" just because they are all overused and currently super trendy

Hahaha...
Although the timestamp of my other post seems to say otherwise (different timezone) my guess above was before this link was posted...
It's all Trapcode as far as I can see.
The particles doing a 'swirly' wave could be turbulence within the Particular plugin. You'd also be able to do it by applying Turbulent Displace on top of the particles though.
As for animating the particles to form text. This tutorial will help.

looks to me like a rehash of George Polevoy's flowing text tutorial with something as simple as scaterize applied to the flowing text. then particular's 3d stroke and shine. George's tutorial was for AE 4.1 and the created date on the file in the tutorial is Mar 5, 2001. I just did this tutorial this week end looking through the tutorial archives. still works in 7. thought it was funny that I just did the tut, then you posted a link to almost exactly the same basic effect. I guess there's not much that's really new.
