Hello! In this Adobe After Effects tutorial we'll create a really cool neon text effect, whilst keeping our text editable and without any 3rd party plugins. We'll go over how to build the glowing neon effect, how to create some realistic looking neon tubes, and then we'll add some animation. The techniques in this tutorial are also great for creating neon logo animations too!
