Here again with another tutorial, this time instead of clouds I bring a simple tutorial on how to create a light “burst” effect that comes out of text. This also doubles as a tutorial on how to create light beams. Enjoy! Also feel free to critique.
Nice job. I just had to comment because your tutorial helped me figure out something I’d been trying to work out for quite a while now. That said, I was wondering if you could maybe achieve the same effect with nodes? (Please excuse me if I am egregiously wrong since I’m not overly familiar with post-compositing, but the question stands).
I think it may be possible to use node textures on extruded text. Then some how using the distance from the camera to object to have the opacity increase the farther the camera is away, that’s just a guess.
