Photoshop and Illustrator

This was the first Photoshop effect we did. We darkened the outside and then added effects to the text for it to look like a neon sign.

This is the second effect we did. The first one we did as a whole class. (Its the same for every first one.) We made a clipping mask and then used a filter to give it the dripping effect.

This is my favorite one so far. We started with picking the colors of the text, and then made rectangles on the word and moved them to make it look like the word was not straight up. Then we added a filter to distort the word. Then we added a blank white layer and added noise to it, (its what makes the little dots) and made it a clipping mask to have it in the word.

This is the fourth effect we did. First we made the text shinny by changing the bevel and emboss. Then we copped the layer and but a gradient to make it fade.

This is the last one we did. We made 3 text layer and then just adjusted the angles of them to make it look like the words are stairs.
