Far be it from me to double-check Kix on ANYTHING Star Wars.... BUT... you could also just do it the way they did. ;) Set up a plane that's rectangular. Shade it with a texture map of the text you want as a alpha map. Place the same color Kix mentions, then add the color into the glow channel as well. (Probably at a dimmer level.) Animate your camera to come over the plane aiming the opposite way from it's travel. I would agree about the accuracy settings. Also render larger (double or more, at an even multiple,) then your final resolution, then down-rez in your editing program. Happy new year, and happy renderings! :D
