this is our second project n e9, well actually its our 4th, but still its great.

my teacher says that we have to tell you how to do this so here i go
in photo shop, i learned that if you make a mistake then it will come back to bite you later, it was a fun experience and i hope this will help you out

first go into photo shop, then click file
then click new
make the pixels 600 by 150

then type your name in the blank space
then erase on letter at a time but very little of it
and then click duplicate layer and hide the other one
until you get done with your first letter

then repeat until your done with the second third fourth and fifth
when your done with that then its time to put it in your timeline
shift click ll of them and click at the top right of the time line reverse frames
then play it and then your animation should look like this at the top of the page
i hope this helped you out in some degree, i know im not a professional but i tried my best
