(New to Niagra ue5) How would i go about recreating this slash effect


I want to recreate this but im not sure how to or where to even start

heya! welcome!

Noticed you asked me the same question in a dm on reddit, so I thought it’d be best to answer here.

We generally call these kind of effects “animtrails”, and “ribbons” and when you google that/search on youtube you get --if you ignore cghow-- great videos like:

These three should get you going!

Thanks so much, but how do i make the black ends that fade into colour

Look into adding a Curve Sample to your material. Depending on how the input values are with a gradient/curve sample, you can achieve these colors.
