I'm trying to make an animation of an atomic bomb exploding over a city, and I want the screen to go from sunset to blinding white in a very short amount of time. My first idea was to make a point light and animate the intensity of it over a few frames, but I don't know if that's possible in Vue 6 Infinite?

If not, I guess I could just do it in post-processing, or make lights and hide them under a plane and have them "pop up", one more light per frame.

EDIT: Ignore that, I'm stupid. ;)

You can animate light (spot light, point light, exception arealight) power property.
You also can animation atmosphere lighting properties.
