State of the Sndbox Competition Entry - SOTS Neon Lights

This is my entry for the State of the #Sndbox Monthly Thumbnail Competition #9. This is my third time joining this contest. The theme that I have thought for this month is "Neon Lights". I also created animated versions - gif and video. Please check them out!

I used Adobe After Effects in creating my entry. For the background, I added a brick texture. The diamond shape surrounding the text has the same shape of their logo. For the text, I used Dynalight (state of the) and Clip (SNDBOX) fonts. I used some lights to make it look like the neon lights are illuminating the brick wall behind it. For the animation, I manipulated the opacity to mimic a flickering light effect. Check out the gif animation below! 😁
