glow inside lamp

Hi hello i am creating a scene such as this:

my main doubt is how to follow the process to glow the light inside the lamps. I have created my model in 3D. I am gonna place my 3d model and using 3D tracking will be inside my scene.

The question is which path is better : create the glow inside after effect or inside cinema 4D?

Thanks
