How to make glow effect in Premiere Pro

If you want a text in your video inside Adobe Premiere Pro to “glow”, just like a neon sign, this is how easy you can achieve that.

How to make glow effect in Premiere Pro

First, you select the font you want to use (preferably a big, bold font).

Remove the “Fill” color and add a “Stroke”.

Then add a “Shadow” and set the shadow to the color you want, preferably something vibrant to really sell the neon effect.

Now, to make this look like a light and not just a shadow, change the distance to 0, set the blur to something around 40 (or whatever you prefer), and then change the stroke to “Center”.

Now, you can adjust the “strength” of this effect by increasing or decreasing the “Size” value.

And that’s how easy it is!
