Sorry, … but what is the question?

Get Trapcode’s 3D Stroke plugin. That should do it for you, or at least get close to what you can do with 3D software.

You might be able to use a combination of Trapcode 3d Stroke and the “growing vines” technique explained in this tutorial.

Mark Simpson, a great guy and former AE Forum Leader had a tutorial that created a tree growing. He used Advanced Lightning. The results are pretty close to what you want. I suggest you take a look at that ASAP. The only problem is, “whatever happened to the link to the AE tutorials???”

Anybody knows how to get to the AE tutorials section?
