Neon Sign Text Effect | Photoshop Tutorial with Free Textures 

You may want to mention that we need to activate the legacy patterns, which is found in the pattern panel. For those looking for the Pattern Panel: If you don't find the pattern panel. Go into windows drop down menu and press pattern. You will get a pattern panel to the right of your screen. Then you have to go in and activate legacy patterns. To activate the legacy pattern there are three bars. Press the three bars. There is a drop down menu. Towards the bottom you will see a button saying, "legacy patterns". There are many legacy patterns. Go into the 2019 fold and you will find a folder with legacy essentials. The pattern is inside that folder. :) Hope this helps.

I’m not gonna lie THIS INSTRUCTIONAL IS SUPER 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I just want to thank you for all the work you are doing. All the videos are so informative and helpful.

These tutorials are amazing... fun and effective. I'm dazzled at Photoshop and the scope of it, and I have to pause a lot to keep up, but they're so informative, thanks!!

Subbed and turned on notifications. This tutorial was a game changer for me when it came to thumbnails, stream layout, logos, etc. Easy to follow at any skill level.

Quite thorough and easy to follow. THANK YOU!

Best tutorial for neon-type effect on Photoshop ever! I watched plenty before finding yours, and this is definitely the best both for explanation and final result. Thank you!

Such a brilliant channel! I'm truly happy of finding you!

First time ever I have followed a tutorial and it worked THANKS

Really helpful tutorial man! Thanks a lot! Keep doing your great jobs further!

Thanks Brady, great tutorial on making the neon sign text effects. I was able to create one for a class assignment, though I loved it so much I created a gif with it!

Direct to the point tutorial! excellente!

Thank you so much for sharing. Loved it!!!! Superb explanations 🙂

Thank you for providing CONCISE information with a GOOD CLEAR VOICE. The diction, the instructions on preparation step-by-step - and finally, taking the time to illustrate what effect the last step provides to the mix gives the learner a well-rounded understanding of the process. I searched and attempted several methods before finding Brady. FINALLY! I get it.

You are the greatest man dude!!! Kudos to you mate!!

Great tute as always! thanks for that.

Excellent Tut. Nice to see the older PS functions and techniques used so well.

Awesome tutorial, and with a little tweaking I was able to make it entirely editable too!

This is definitely helpful! You are so GREAT! Please keep doing the tutorials!

Fascinating tutorials you got there.

I may be late a bit - 2 years late watching, but I have learnt quite a bit. Great tutorial, THANKS.

Thank you so much! Your video was really helpful to me.

Quick. Clean. Super practical video. WELL DONE. Liked and Sub.

I really appreciate this tutorial, you do what a lot of others don't and make it more authentic by breaking the letters up as if it were tubes and add the diode inputs. Very subtle but honestly makes it more believable and authentic!

Very helpful and insightful. Liked and Subbed

Love the content, Subbed!

Brilliant!

Thanks for sharing. Wow.

really informative video! Thank you for making and posting these! Is there a way to use live text with this? or a simple way to make it flicker to on with after effects?

Hi, this is the most convincing Neon I have ever seen so far - thank's for that! You can even improve the tube look by setting the stroke style to gradient with style "Shape Burst" then set the gradient colors to fit the wanted color of the tube.

perfect

love from kathhmandu nepal

wow!

Hey Brady, great tutorial. What if instead of a font, one had a drawn closed shape. Would the process be the same say if I drew a circle inside a circle for an O. I ask because I want to create an variation on a particular letter...as in CIGAR making the I in the shape of a cigar.

Hey, great lesson. I have a problem. When it was necessary to pick up a stroke, I did not have the right pattern

Very good!

Congrats ! I started right before covid when the recession Nice tutorialt. I held those stocks and made a killing. I bought dividend stocks and made a

Amazing stuff!

very useful

Really nice neon! tks. I wrote one word and i get everything done. But later i wanted to add another word with the same effects. How to do it? Thank you

TNX!!!

Thanks for this amazing tutorial. I have some issues. my clipping mask is resulting only on the stroke portion not in the outer glow portion. In this video 7:50mnt the wey you make it happen.it would be a great help if you light on it. Thanks.

Great video

dope

thank you

again amazing! Interesting - can we add some new letters in this picture?

How do you get the noise pattern? There are very few options when I open up patterns in photoshop and the noise one you demonstrated is absent. Thanks.

Cool

The gaps in neon signs are usually in the corners of the shapes an also close to each other to save on wiring ;)

Hi, I've watching your recent videos alot, really really love them. You've been pushing non-destructive way of making designs. I wonder if is it possible for this as well

I live in Mineola TX! Sounds the same as your font! That was funny to hear you say!

will this work with an image. Like a logo?

In the portion when applying multiple colors, how would you execute that with three colors?

Yo, great tutorial. Question: for some reason the drop shadow effect isn't working for me. It stays only within the boundaries of the text, so it doesn't give the image that neon light look. To top it all, bc it's only inside the text the inner glow effect kinda gets overshadowed. Would you happen to know what is causing it? Already tried obscuring other layers to no avail, can't figure it out

didn't let me do this "edit - stroke" in 4:46. appears as grey aka doesnt let me choose it

love the tutorial...but...what is the name of the wobbly noise pattern? and where can i find it?

excellent video, but is there anyway i could do this with smaller writing please? it keeps telling me nothing selected but works perfect when enlarged. Thank you for your time

Kathmandu 🤘🤘

Hi There, I'm using windows 11 and photoshop 23 and pardon me, but no matter what I do I cannot get this to work. It just goes completely off when I attempt to do a clipping mask. If anyone can help me, I would be grateful. Thank you.

MOAR! *slams desk* ...MOAR!!!!

Hi, What Photoshop Do You Have? I Have The 2020 Version.. But When I Go To 'Pattern'( 3:15 ) Even At 'Pattern Overlay'i Dont Have The Choices :( ...

Hello, At 4:30 when I click edit stroke is greyed out. I followed the steps as shown

In the pattern section, i can't find the one you used.

::dies happy covered in free textures::

Doesn't work for me any idea why? Around the 4:50 mark when I go to modify after contract it tells me no pixels are selected

How could you edit the text to change what it says

This is the city I live in.

How to create this pattern used as stroke?

Why constrain the metal background to only inside the letters? Think it would looks better if you show it outside the letters and fall off to black with the glow of the neon...

Dropping in to see how the pros do it. Fortunately there are twenty ways in PS to do things...my way one might be considered "harder" but it does involve lots of safety measures. I did more of this back around 2010 making a short noir film, and animating some neon signs in San Francisco's Chinatown in Black and White that haven't been operable since maybe the 1950's. Back then it was CS 4 Extended. The 3D tools were different back then and learning them without going completely nuts took a while. (I kept remembeing the line in Gone With The Wind, "Tomorrow IS another day." The film did good, and here' a copy of it with some updating to the titles and a mural added to a launderette wall..(I couldn't stand all that white in a noir film!)
