Then for the same layer apply a Layer Style Outer Glow. After that duplicate the grid and first apply a Gaussian Blur (5px). Change the Blend Mode of the group to Color Dodge. Change the colors for purple to blue and make sure that the Dither option is selected. Select the background layer and then go to Layer>Layer Style>Gradient Overlay. I am pretty much using half of the screen, a little bit less actually. Then just start distorting the grid till you get the effect you want. Paste the grid in the document and then with layer styles change the color of the grid to white. That's it, the next steps will be all in Photoshop. Create a grid with 40 dividers for both horizontal and vertical. The best way or the easiest at least, for me, is to use Illustrator and the Rectangular Grid Tool Options. Let's start by creating the grid that we will use in Photoshop. We will use Photoshop for most of the tutorial and a little bit of Illustrator for the vector part. So for this tutorial, I will show you how to create an 80s style composition with the classic glowing grid. The movie is full of references and of course the computer glowing grid effect which happened to inspire this tutorial. After watching the movie I had to go back and dust off my Photoshop skills to create something inspired by that. What a masterpiece! It's a true homage to the 80s actions movies full of the cliche styles that made that era the most creative and visually rich in my opinion. This weekend I took 30 minutes of my time to watch Kung Fury.
