    Hey Guys Im wondering if there is a way to make a batman style signal in the sky? obviously not with the batman logo but with something very simple such as a letter like X. If you could please help me out asap I would love you!

    Thanks,
    Alex Haynes

    buy a $100,000 spotlight and weldcut a batman logo and screw it to frame, then record with camera. or..make a mask in batman shape and have light effect glow through another layer behind it.

    the easiest way to do it would be to take your letter X that you said you wanted to use .. and then add a new solid whiteish yellow .. then mask out the solid in the shape of a beam of light from the ground up to the X in the sky, getting wider the higher it goes up . feather the mask .. i do this all the time to create dance floor lights and stuff like that .
