    the techniques we use to make this retro chrome text are really powerful when combined and can be used for so many different looks, so definitely keep this combo in your brain's back pocket.
    today we're creating an 80s chrome text effect, a synthwave text look, a vaporwave text effect, retro chrome effect, whatever you want to call it. (in case you haven't realized, i'm being overly wordy to hit as many keywords as i can for youtube searches lol)

    Literally the highest quality after effects tutorials I’ve ever seen, I really appreciate the time you take to explain what each effect is doing and how and why they compound with everything else, the extra animations like the cards and the soft light explanation really put your vids up and above anything else, keep it up

    You should try recreating the Tron: Legacy effect where the main character gets pulled into the game.

    Just stumbled upon your channel today and your tutorials are amazing! I am annoyed with searching for some retro visual tutorials, where it's all about chromatic aberration and some overlay shit that you can only get by buying 100$ AE pack. Do you think you could make a tutorial on some visual techniques used in Carpenter Brut's Turbo killer music clip? There are things I just can't get right, but man you really seem to know your way around retro stuff!

    Would it be hard to animate the text ? like all the letters flying in the air and coming together ? if so do you have a video already explaning this, I would really be interested. Thanks :)
