As I've been unable to find this specific information myself, you guys are my last hope - someone with experience in video editing. Or someone with the knowledge.
Let's say that I have a video clip and I want to add text over it. And let's say I want to mess around with it. Visualize that I have this text right in front of my eyes - if I use one finger and poke it on the right side, it moves and swings a bit to the left. If I shove it, it moves backwards. If I grab it and pull it towards me, then it, well, comes closer.
Can you think of a video editing program that allows me to move the text around however I want it? To "bring it to life", sort of.. At least something that allows you to work a bit more freely with the words.
Congratulations if you figured out my lousy explanation.

edit - maybe I found a better word for it. Text animation?
