Based on the feedback your peers provided, decide on a final version of the animation. All of the peers agreed that the vertical motion for the word "My" should be changed to slide in from the side instead.

From their advice, let's swap the directions of "My" and "Transit" for a more symmetrical look. + + + +We have now arrived at our final version of the animation.
