______________________________________________
This comprehensive video takes you step-by-step through the complete process from beginning images clear through to the final composite image. After the project video I answer some common questions about the techniques I used in this video. This training demo was recorded in Photoshop CS6 but the techniques used will work just as well in Photoshop CS5 through the latest Photoshop CC.
Creating Neon text is pretty straight forward and follows a few simple Photoshop steps.
1. You need an appropriate background. People expect to see Neon text on business walls and in windows. So putting the Neon text in a setting that people expect adds a lot to the effect.
2. Pick the correct typeface. Real Neon text signs are made up of bent glass tubes, so you need a font that is basically one width throughout, is script based, and doesn’t have any serifs.
3. Pick a bright Neon color for the text then use Photoshop Layer Styles to add Inner Glow and Outer Glow. Specific settings work best.
4. For added realism adjust the background to help with the Neon effect.
