When you have a title ready to go, select the ellipse tool or any shape that you want. Draw out a mask on your text layer.
Then open your text layer and go into path options. Set the path to your mask. Feel free to alt-click the stopwatch for first margin and type time*-200.
Now turn your layer into a 3D layer. Then go to animate and enable per character 3D. Then go back to animate and add rotation.
Set the X Rotation to 90 degrees. After that hit βRβ on your keyboard for transform rotation and set the x rotation here to about -75 degrees.
Lastly, to easily repeate the title, go to effect β time β echo.
Increase the number of echos to at least 2 and offset the echo time until your path is filled with your title.
