For this VFX Effect, I wanted to create a laser beam effect inside of Unity. I began my process by thinking about how I wanted this effect to occur in each sequence. I then went into Photoshop to start making the materials needed for this effect. With watching references, I was able to manipulate the particle effect settings to create this effect and make it come to life.
​

I used Audacity to get the charge sound to work as intended. The model shown was acquired from the Unity Asset store to help with this demonstration. Below are the materials used in the making of these effects.
