How to make reflection glow on logo?

[Jon Geddes]

We did lots of this in our latest Pro Motion Menu Kit, titled “Regal Cinema”:

A good way to do it is apply an adjustment layer above all your other layers, then use multiple glow effects on it. You might try one glow with just a vertical direction, then a second more diffused with horizontal and vertical. Just keep playing with it until you get the results you want. It also helps to have a light in the scene and make your layers 3D. You can then tweak the material options of your layers for a more realistic look.

In our menu above, we also added a wiggle to the intensity of the light for a more natural flickering of fire / candlelight.

And background will be black.

Apply the CC Light Sweep effect to the layer, then keyframe the center… I forgot to mention we also used that technique in the video I posted.
