anyone knows how to create this text effect?

[http://lab.mathieu-badimon.com/](http://lab.mathieu-badimon.com/)

try the 7 main buttons on the middle.  
i’ve seen it a couple of times like the one in [2advanced.com](http://2advanced.com), it looks pretty darn cool.

i’ve tried playing it by frame, but it doesnt look so good and the way it’s done doesn’t satisfy me :P, i’m sure there a way to do it using AS.

Please help:)
