the reflection is ez. all u need to do is copy the layer then flip it vertical , move it down a little. take an eraser erase in a straight line , cutting the words in half horizontally and make the opacity to 50%

Here, I couldn't exactly replicate your effect, but it's close enough

Basically, move the rectangles over each other & instead of lowering opacity, give it a drop shadow that fully engulfs a little bit of the one below it & darkens the entire thing, this will deepen the pic.
