Radial Blur

Radial Blur can be used for a god ray like effect. The following video and image present examples:

To keep the sharp version of text, just duplicate it, or reduce the effect strength, and strengthen the color multiplier. The version above uses the second approach (which is a little harder).

Center

You can move the center by adjusting the property Effect Center inside Mask Settings in the property inspector, on the Mask component.

This property can be animated like most other properties.

Type 1 vs Type 2

Radial blur has two types, which only are relevant, if you use the effects locally. They change whether the output is masked, or the rays are masked.
