Does anyone no how to create this text effect. I have tried envelope and perspective but can't seem to recreate it. The font can be found here.

Thanks I have got that part but it doesn't stretch the letters from center out like the logo.

The pink and yellow text has a perspective effect

Each yellow letter was also scaled and skewed individually

Black text needs breaking into two words to apply similar adjustments

Then could apply envelope for a slight arched effect if needed

instead of writing "triple threat" as one word, write them both as two words. Click and write "Triple" then click somewhere else and write "Threat". Then move them both on to the same baseline so they line up, then you can use the perspective tool to effect both of the words so they look like they flow out from the center. Do the same with motorsports, just write 'motor' as one word and 'sports' as the other then put them both together to get the effect you want.

Ok, just figured out an easier way to do this using the envelope tool.

Type "TRIPLE THREAT" as one word, format with font style, size etc... to look the way you want it to look.

Then select the "Envelope" tool from the 'effects' pulldown menu. Your envelope flyout should open.

Select 'putty' in the options pulldown. Use your picker tool and select the text. Then select 'Add New' in the envelope flyout. You should see some sizing nodes appear around the text. Select the bottom center node and slide it up to create the effect, then select the top center node and slide it down to finish the effect. Select your picker tool again to save the effect. You can adjust the outside nodes larger to get a bigger effect. Adjust as necessary. :)

Hope this helps.
