i think you can achieve this in compositing programs such as adobe after effects.
although my knowlege to AE is very limited, here is what i think you can do:
load this footage into AE, motion track the movement of the "LOST" logo (in this case its a 3D movement), since in this footage its a high contrast logo moving aginst a black or very dark background, the result of tracking should be fairly accurate. then you can save the tracking results in a "null", and create your own subtitle, whatever you want to put under the "LOST" logo, apply "corner pin" in "effects->distort", then "parent" this effect to the null. here you will your subtitle moving along with "LOST" logo. finally output the composition to your desired format.
