MESSAGE:
Due to multiple requests over the last weeks in this weeks video we are going to look at part 1 of recreating "lasers" in Octane.
We will be exploring how to generate cool laser effects in octane using light projections. As always the premise is very easy and done in a couple of minutes. But this channel would not be this channel if I would not dig a bit deeper what is going on behind the scenes!
So I hope you enjoy and learn the one or other thing
