How to Create a Neon Glitch Text Animation for Your Videos

There's something about glowing neon text that instantly brings to mind late-night city streets, retro arcades and old-school television screens. Add a few flickers and bursts of distortion, and you get a glitch effect that works particularly well for music videos, travel recaps, gaming edits and cinematic title sequences.

TypeFlow's Neon Glitch Screen template lets you create this look directly in your browser. Add up to three lines of text, choose a font and customise the neon colours to get the look you want. You can also adjust the glow and use two contrasting RGB fringe colours to give the letters that familiar colour-splitting effect.

Customising the Glitch Effect

The glitch itself is completely optional. Leave it on for occasional bursts of distortion, or turn it off if you just want a clean, glowing neon sign.

You can also add CRT scanlines or a TV pixel grid to give the animation a more retro screen-like appearance. Adjust the strength and frequency of the glitch bursts to control how often the distortion appears.

For a little extra impact, there's an optional sound effect that plays with each glitch burst once your text is on screen.

The template is available on the Studio plan, with exports up to 4K at 60 fps.

What You Can Make

RGB Color Split

Two accent colors sit on the left and right fringe of the letters, the way a misaligned CRT looks on camera.

Glitch Bursts and Sound

Turn glitch on for RGB jumps and optional hit sounds timed to the bursts, or leave it off for a still neon sign.

CRT Scanlines and TV Pixels

Add a scanline wash or a close-up TV pixel grid, and set how strong the screen layer sits over the type.
