How would I create this gold effect?

I need to apply this lens flare and glitter effect to an animation I’ve made for someone. I have a logo with a light moving in front of it to get some nice reflections. I’m pretty experienced with Blender but not with compositing in it. I think I can make the lens flare, but I’m lost when it comes to the glitter effect. Can it even be done in the compositor?

Go the the node setup for the compositer. Add the Filter----> Glare node between the render layers and the output. Change the # of streaks to 2 and it will make that fake anamorphic glare. If you want to have the blue tint you may have to add a color mixer after that but at least this will get you started.

Getting the bluish tint wasn’t as easy as I thought but after playing around I got it to work like this.


You want to look up particle effects, and turn off gravity.
