Thanks! The better half of the process was trying to get the font or some viable alternative. It's shockingly difficult to find a close match (reddit was useless as usual). To keep it simple, Arial Narrow, of all things, looked good enough to pass. (if you were to try with a shorter text then I recommend Helvetica Light, it's a closer match in retrospect). then in Affinity fudged the text with outer glow.Must have been quite some work to get that text right, could you share your process?
The shimmering letters were different exports of the base image with a lighter color. If I had used the video editor for the text, then I could have used a strobing overlay instead. (if you squint your eyes, the original has a very noticeable pattern, also I snuck in a hidden nigger mark)
