Anyone know how to create this kind of title effect?
 

Trying find a way to create the effect of someone signing their name. Ideally I would like to be able to capture the person's real signature perhaps on a tablet or something. Alternatively I have a handwriting font. I just don't know how make it appear as if someone is signing their name. Here is an example in the opening of this clip.

I know you can do this with the "write on" effect in Motion and After effects.

Hi Art

I found the really easy way is to use Heroglyph from ProDad .... simple handwriting animations and they really work and the software does the key framing for you. It has a Vegas plugin too!!

I used this recently, albeit a After Effects project: After Effects Project Files - Grace - Animated Handwriting Font | VideoHive Worked well for me:
