Join Bert Monroy for an in-depth discussion in this video Three Dimensional type with extruded neon: Making the letter forms, part of Pixel Playground.
- In a previous episode, I created some extruded type…using the 3D function of Photoshop.…Well, there are many times…when I needed to extrude type…but for a totally different effect…which requires a little more work.…Some of my paintings like this one here, hamburgers.…You come in close, you'll see that there is extruded type.…See, except it's hollow showing a neon inside,…an effect that I've used often like right here.…Here it is again.…Extruded type and hollow inside…but this time there's a texture on the sides.…
Even this on my commercial work like this one here…come in real close,…and that's specifically what the client wanted.…He wanted that kind of type.…Neon that's inside of this letterforms…that are hollowed out inside.…So that's what we're going to create today.…A three dimensional type that's hollowed out…and then we're gonna put some neon inside of it.…So, let's go in here and create some text.…So now I have my type tool…and let's just type in the word cod.…That's gonna be nice and easy.…
Basically round edges, a couple of hard lines…

Q: Why can't I earn a Certificate of Completion for this course?
A: We publish a new tutorial or tutorials for this course on a regular basis. We are unable to offer a Certificate of Completion because it is an ever-evolving course that is not designed to be completed. Check back often for new movies.
Q: Why are some of the 3D menu items grayed out when I try to follow along?
A: The 3D features in Photoshop CC require a computer with at least 512MB VRAM. If your computer doesn't meet this criterion, the 3D menu features will be greyed out.
