    I usually just use a white plane and track a mask to the blade then overlay feathered and colored copies for glow. Let's me customize it as much as I want, but it does take longer than a 2 or 4 point preset.

    I need help! It’s automatically adjusting my roundness and end and start size. I did hold key frames, but it gradually changes them over time. Example: One frame is at 0.90, and 3 frames later, I have it at 0.70. However, it’s automatically gradually changing it to the second between the first and last frame.
