  Rotating Lighthouse Beacon

  Posted by Eric Goldstein on July 13, 2006 at 7:46 pm

  Hi,

  I’ve got make a rotating lighthouse beacon (picture light rays on a foggy night). The light rays have to rotate 360 degrees.

  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to achieve this effect?

  Thanks for your help,

  Thanks Steve,

  But Trapcode’s products don’t appear to have any method for rotating the light. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

  Thanks,

  sure, doesn’t lux just create volumetic light out of regular AE lights?
  Just rotate the AE light that drives Lux.
