i want that the glow follow the object, and also to have a pulse.

Later on, i try turning on and off the glow, and giving keyframes, but the pulse is not natural.

Is there a way to make it like a light turning on, that it flashes some times and then is on all the time?

Thanks a lot

Thanks a lot

Hi there, you’re right, in post it cost more time and money that filming again.
But the problem is that i work in a company that everything is solve in post production, and my boss arrives and give e this job to do.

If it was filmed in chroma it was a piece of cake, but it was not.

So now i have to solve this, my only problem here is how to give more depth between the instances, or having a way that they don’t blend so much, so if you could help me, i would be really appreciate, if not thanks for the reply

i did what you sad, and activate the caustics in te render settings, and nothing happens.
Do i need to do something else?
Thanks a lot

sorry i forgot the possibilities!
What i want is mac buttons.
And i want to animate the glossy, not the button it self.
Thanks a lot for the quick reply

what i want to do is similiar to what i can do in after effects with the effect write on, that is revealing the text by animating the write on, and i’d like to do it with cinema to take part of the different perspectives and pov that cinema allow, and also that is 3D.
By i’ll try to do as you say, but i’ve seen similar animation like this one, and it seems in the time that it was an unic object.

i usualy use the extrude nurbs, for splines.
But in this case i want to animate the grow of the lettring, and the extrude nurb don’t have that option, just the sweep nurb

create a new object , then go to window —> time line —> select the object and then go to file add special track and in the botton is sound.
In the right side it’ll appear the buuton to load the sound

Thanks a lot for your reply
