1. The lightning stays as a still frame for too long to look real. Either animate the lightining itself, or make it appear for only one frame and be completely stationary.

2. The texture used is just a glow effect around blank space. What you should do is have a completely white lightning texture, then use MI's glow effect on it and turn the glow color to purple.

The Lighting Animation looks really like an Image that just being animated. I recommended you To Make the lighting in Just Few secs, Because Lighting in real life have Short Time shows up.

Ok, I will try to make the lightning quicker, I will also try to improve my glow, thanks for the feedback!

Maybe make the lightning flash for one frame, disappear, and then flash again but with the texture reversed. I think it would make it look a lot better!

Answer:You better find a different lightning In the Google, Then Animate it with static/90° Angle Transition, That is A surface, But With different textures every frame.
