How to create:
First I created a 4500 x 3000, 300 dpi file.
With command or control I, I inverted the background making it black and added my text.

Then, I converted it to a Smart Object.

On the Smart Object I applied directional blur with an angle of 90 and a distance of 60.
Then I applied gaussian blur with a 15 pixel radius

Now, to make the distorted letters effect, I used liquify.

You can distort the text however you like.

You can download this complete and editable file on my gumroad page, link In description.

To give a final touch of distortion I added the wave effect, in my case I wanted a slight distortion, but you can also increase the values

We will now apply the color.

Double click on the Smart Object layer; open the layer style, select color overlay, with normal bland mode and a color of your choice.

Now, duplicate the layer 3 times with command or control J.

Turn off the first layer, on the third, apply the Guassian Blur effect with a radius of 35 or greater, this effect is used to create a halo behind the writing and make it more nuanced when we apply the grain.

Activate the first layer and open the layer style, apply gradient overlay and choose a gradient.

Apply satin with bland mode set to linear dodge and with a color similar to the gradient.

Finally apply Bevel & Emboss to give it a more three-dimensional shape.

In the last step, I increased the saturation and fixed the satin effect to make it more homogeneous and shaded, then I added a grain filter and corrected some distorted parts of the text.

Here is the final result!

bro straight up you made doing this agonizing, what should have taken at least 30 min took me 4HOURS! becuase you dont slow down, dont explain, and skipping certain parts that make a difference overall to the end result. Breath! slow down and explain my guy.

Great video and straight to the point, love it. Just a tip would be to do it a bit slower or at least write down the instructions, because I had to keep pausing and going back because sometimes it was too fast towards the end. But thanks!
