Photoshop is a great tool using for web and print media designs and also using in different kind of effects. In this tutorial i am using 1 filter "Wind" you can make different effects using same way which is using in this tutorial. I hope you will learn and enjoy.

Step 1:

Create a new blank document fill it with black, then use the text tool and type your text in white:

Now go to the original layer and go to filter > stylize > wind, then use the following options: (Wind – From the Right)

Step 4:

Press Ctrl + F, this command will repeat last applied filter effect.

Step 5:

Again go to filter > stylize > wind, then use the following options: (Wind – From the Left)

Step 6:

Press Ctrl + F, this command will repeat last applied filter effect.

Step 7:

Now we need to apply this effect to top and bottom of text. Wind filter doesn’t have these both directions.
So for apply this effect to top and bottom we will have to rotate canvas 90 degrees so go on Image > Rotate Canvas > 90 CW" and apply the wind effect in the same way as before as from the left will still be selected it makes sense to do it from the left, remember press ctrl + f to redo it one more time.

Step 8:

Repeat above step in 90 CCW

Step 8:

Use rotate command again from image menu and straight canvas and after that select both layers one by one and go on Layer menu > Layer Style > Color Overlay/Gradient Overlay. using these you can apply different color schemes.
