Re: changing colour
Several methods, Chris. You can use the one I outlined above, except choose the red you want first as the foreground colour.

Or, as Nick suggested, make a solid colour Adjustment Layer and use the text layer as a clipping mask. That way, you can change the colour using the sliders, or pick a Pantone colour, or whatever.

Re: changing colour
Hi Chris
The simplest methods are to either use the layer style approach as described by Luis, or the technique I have shown above. Both will only affect the 'live' pixels on the transparent layer and either will allow you to go back and edit the colour at any time.
