This was fun to create. I showcase how I would use the new sText node in Davinci Resolve 19 as well as other tools, especially my trusty RAYS node coupled with my favorite chrome shader. I combine these along with a few nodes to create this sweet movie intro.

If you are a movie buff, you'd probably have an idea where I got the inspiration from.

Please follow along and let me know if you run into any challenges recreating this. It actually presents a number of other animation possibilities that I will go into in subsequent videos.
