So let's start.
Import the files you need into After Effects. You can download the full project including
the sound effects, from the link in the description.
Create a new composition and name it: logo reveal. I'm using a FULL HD 1080 pixels preset,
with 30 frames per second, and 8 seconds long.
Bring the logo into your composition.
Right click on it, and pre-compose it.
Name the new composition: animation.
Don't forget to select move all attributes into the new composition.
Open the animation composition.
Right click on the logo layer, and pre-compose it again.
Name this composition: logo.
Go to effects and presets panel, and search for: simple choker.
Apply it to your logo layer, then change the choke matte to 15.
Search for warp.
Apply it.
Then change, warp style to: bulge.
Warp axis to vertical.
And bend amount to 100.
Search for cc lens, and apply it to your layer.
Change convergence to -200.
Size to 0, and create a keyframe here, at the beginning of your composition.
Click U, to reveal the keyframe.
Move to 15 frames, and change the size to 6.
Move to 1 second and 15 frames, and change the value to 5.
Move 15 more frames forward, and change the value to 17.
Move to 3 seconds, and lower the value to 14.
Then, move to 4 seconds and 15 frames, and set the value 110.
Select only these 4 keyframes, right-click on any of them, and easy ease them.
Duplicate the logo layer.
Then, select the bottom one, and click edit, split layer.
Delete the remaining part of this layer.
Select the top logo layer, and delete the CC lens, and the warp effects from it.
Change the choke matte to 40.
Search for CC Pixel Polly, and apply it to your layer, but, it's very important to place
it above the simple choker effect.
Change the gravity to 0.5.
The spinning angle to 56 degrees.
And the grid spacing to 64.
Click the left bracket button on your keyboard, to change its in point, and make it start
from 4 seconds and 15 frames.
Then, duplicate this layer, and adjust its settings like this.
Change force to 70.

Grid spacing to 10.
Choke matte to 15.
Move to 6 seconds and 15 frames, and create a keyframe on choke matte.
Then move to 7 seconds, and change its value to 35.
Go back to your logo reveal composition, and let's see how our animation is looking.
Not bad, but we have a lot more until the final logo reveal.
Create a new solid, and name it: background. Even if in this example I'm using a bigger
size, it's better to make it comp size.

in the middle, and a little less wide than your logo.
Precompose this shape layer,
And name the new comp: text.
Open the text composition.

This will be my secondary text, and I will use the Noteworthy font, with the same gray
color as the line above, and 35 pixels size.
Place your text like this, then align it horizontally in the middle.
Unselect your text layer.
