Hi,

I am looking for help to create Club Lighting. With the effects attached in the screenshots. The lights has shapes in the beam. The Shapes are also track to the light and visible on the floor. Please note I am quite new to AE - Have Optical Flares and the full Trapcode suite.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Not possible directly. You can't texture lights in Trapcode Lux nor would they project the patterns onto layers. If at all the latter would require to apply the light specks as movable textures tied to expressions, but even that would not necessarily look real. You're simply reaching the limits of what AE can do. This is really stuff for a 3D program with genuine volume tracing capabilities. Time to move on...
