Hi guys,
On a mission here to create an - electromagnetic Wave OR radiation effect/ visual which can be can be placed anywhere in 3D space.
Some examples of what the most common visual for EMW and what I want to achieve.
I would like to mimic the same shape but also add more detail to so it is not so text book style looking.

I am thinking there are a few ways around doing this but personally am a bit rusty in VFX and need pointing in the right direction.
1) an emitter in 3D space with the correct shapes )
2) 3D objects shapes continuously streaming directionally (in after FX or other 3D program)
3) 2d spites with video playing inside as it streams along the path
Here is a video which showcases some well done effects
Thanks so much!
