Rendering problems

For some strange reason some of the geometry is rendering fine in Render View but not appearing in the rendered animation.

Here is what renders in Render View:

Here is a frame from the animation:

I also get this in the Script Editor:
// Warning: TrenderPolyShape::sample: mesh 'bevelPolygonShape2' delivered an empty surface. //
// Warning: TrenderPolyShape::sample: mesh 'bevelPolygonShape1' delivered an empty surface. //

Any ideas?

Thanks user added image

this may sound kinda dumb...cauz I really don't know the answer, I am shooting in the dark...maybe try deleting history on the font, and go to polygons>clean up with the options. Turn on Clean up non manifold geometry...Just a guess, good luck,

Well, I opened Maya and opened the scene and for some reason the Text geometry was gone. It showed in the Outliner but would not show when selected. I checked other settings and saw no reason for the text not to show.

So, I'm going to recreate the Text and go from there. I will try your suggestion.

Brian,
It looks like the Clean up and deleting history did the trick.
The animation came out perfect. Thanks user added image
