KeyShot Quick Tip - Pulsing LEDs Using the Color Fade Animation Node

Effectively demonstrating a product’s functionality by flashing, blinking, or gently pulsing an LED is important. In this video, Industrial Design Specialist, Brooke Harrington, uses the Color Fade Animation Node in order to create a pulsing LED light on an electric toothbrush.

Could you guys do some tutorials on lighting products eg. downlights and how to create effecting lighting.

very cool. I'm curious why not use the 'fade' animation on the emissive piece (with a prismatic piece always visible for it to shine through) i usually prefer the model to be more realistic with the prismatic clear acrylic or LED material being a clear plastic with a tiny emissive sphere placed strategically. letting the emissive sphere fade also gets you much better caustics and reflections IMHO, but i wonder if there's a performance benefit from using this method. my only objection is that there's a lot of custom material graph nodes that would probably confuse a co-worker who had to take this file over.

Would it be possible to make the light change from one colour to another, say change from white to blue after docking?
