Can I make a transparent GIF glow?

Development Getting Started & Setup

I need to simulate a video projector shining an image on a transparent screen. This is typically easy to do with a simple transparent GIF representing the screen and the image. However, this will be in a dark room, so the image on the GIF needs to glow. Right now the GIF image and transparency all work, but they are very dark so they do not look like a projection. Is there a way to make this image glow with light?

Hi Tracy,

Thank you for reaching out in the Twinmotion Community. The materials in Twinmotion will have a glow setting that can be adjusted, in Twinmotion 2023.2.3 this will be in the material's Settings > Glow; in 2023.1 Preview 2 this will appear under Emissive in the material's settings. We have a video on our Youtube channel that uses a similar concept to what you are looking to achieve and may be helpful: Behind-the-scenes of Twinmotion Challenge 6: create a holographic screen in Twinmotion

Best Regards,

Morgan
