Following my series of tutorials on Retro effects, I will show you how to create a text effect in Photoshop based on the DVNO clip by Justice and of course some 8 and 16 bits video game opening screens. We will play basically with some basic filters like Gaussian Blur, also with Blend Modes to the light effects.
The wallpaper of this week is a light effect I created a few weeks ago inspired by an XPeria ad I saw while I was waiting for a flight at the airport. It's basically a light beam with a colorful gradient blended with it.
