Chapter 15. Fog of Text

This chapter was actually inspired by the accident of duplicating a text layer more times than necessary. Instead of removing the extra layers, I began playing around with them and animated them in from various locations on the screen. It's an effect that you can use many ways: as the main feature of a project, as a background to fill space, and so on.

In this chapter, you'll create a virtual fog made of words that scale and move through 3D space until they settle into uniform rows. A woman's figure walks through the fog of words, revealed only by the words that fall upon her form.
