Animated sheen on Logo or Text?
Hey guys,
I was curios as to if anyone knows what the technique is to create that animated sheen look on top of text or logos? You see it everywhere, but I can never seem to achieve the same look. Here is an example of what I mean. Take a look at the reflective surface of the Toyota logo at the very end of the clip:

Any suggestions or techniques would be appreciated.

The best way would be to take the vector version of the logo, bring it into a 3D program first. I’d use Cinema 4D, apply an extrude NURBS object to it, give it some type of chrome texture, and shine a light or 2 over it, moving one of them to get the moving glare look.

I have a chrome setup rig on my site under the “goodies” section.

if you download that after you make your logo in 3D it should work nicely.I usually rotate the chrome sphere object slowly over time and it produces a nice reflection on the text that you apply the chrome texture to.
Hope that helps
