3D swivel is cropping my logo

Good Morning All,

 

I'm relatively new to doing projects like this. Simply put, I'm trying to rotate a logo 2x in 4 seconds (total duration - 5 seconds). I believe I have the settings and everything correct but as you'll see, it appears that the logo starts out fine then appears to be cropped whilst rotating (that may not be what's happening but it's how I'm describing it). For the life of me can not understand why! Again I'm new, so go easy on me if it's something simple. I'm just trying to learn. I'm attaching a dropbox link to the files for review. I'd really appreciate some help (explanation) if you can. Thanks in advance.

I've had a look at your project. Not sure why it is happening but I think I found a fix. In the Basic 3D effects settings, with the image un-rotated, adjust the 'distance to image' untill the still is not cropped, I found 74 was good. Then adjust the Motion 'Scale ' inbuilt effect to restore the image to full size, I found 171 was about right.

If you watch the video at 4:30 it demonstrates a bug with the 3D filter in software only mode. GPU mode should work fine.
