render draw lines in 3d space

[muoto]

Hello,

i need for a current project to do a kind of tron effect where lines grow into a certain objects or shapes.
anyone has any good approch to this ? or are there some tools or software good for this ?

the lines should grow into a kind of 3d cube or objects according to a grid, that's why its a bit difficult to do it just like this in nuke or aftereffects,...or am i wrong ?

Thanks !

Lots of cylinders / splines with gradients being animated along their length using uv mapping gizmos or uvw xform modifiers!
