Lightning is defined by two main visual components: colors and shapes. Most lightning appears entirely white, but it can actually appear in multiple colors. The inner shape remains white, while the edges are tinted by temperature, environmental conditions, and airborne particles.

The Simpsons, Rick and Morty, and Arcane are all works of animation, but there’s a catch: production value. How much the studio invests in the VFX department affects the final look of the FX. 🔥 Let’s tackle how the fire would look in these production budgets! #framebyframe #vfx

Lightning shapes are rather forgiving from a design perspective: since lightning strikes happen so fast, we don’t have a perfect understanding of exactly how they should move. Meaning, you can sometimes get away with exaggerated shapes.

🔋 Adding a charge-up effect to your ability VFX will make the timing more snappy and the effect richer. #vfx #rtvfx #visualfx

Studying the forces of nature makes the VFX creation process far easier and more engaging. When you already understand the "whys" and "hows," it becomes much easier to create quality results, so understanding real lightning helps your designs feel more believable!
