Advanced Shine effect?

Postby TopGun » Wed Sep 12, 2012 4:10 pm

I was trying to recreate something like this but I get stuck with applying the "Shine" effect.

Hello,

This is one solution approach:

1) Create the letters/logo
2) Draw a global shining shape. Here it is a rectangle with blur at 30%, converted to path and some little node modification to get the rounding part
3) Select the letters/logo and duplicate. Then apply union to it to be only one object. Then select the shining shape, with Shift down, and get intersection
4) It is done

If you need more detail please ask.

Regards
