Trapcode Starglow

Examples

Starglow works great with particles! These particles were created with Trapcode 3D Stroke. Shine was used for initial coloring, and Starglow to make the particles look like small stars with orange, red and purple rays.

This movie illustrates how Starglow can be used to make CG renderings look more realistic. We used a water loop created with the Red Giant Psunami plug-in. Starglow was applied with the "Warm Heaven 2" preset, a streak length of 9.0, and a threshold of 115.0 to generate a realistic reflection off the water surface.

In this example, two instances of Starglow were used on top of a logo created with 3D Stroke. The first instance provides the long faint streaks on the text in the background, while the second uses the Mask control with an animated centerpoint that moves back and forth across the logo and appears to light up the text.
