How to make 'Trail effect' (ghosting)

This is a Unity plugin preview video of 'Sprite trail' effect.

Not in Canvas, but I would like to make a same effect with HTML imgs in Javascript. (Im thinking of animating elements with 'gsap' plugin, and need trail effects following them while moving)

Any ideas? 

 

Thank you.

We love helping with GSAP-related questions, but unfortunately we just don't have the resources to provide free general consulting, logic troubleshooting, or "how do I recreate this cool effect I saw on another site?" tutorials. Of course anyone else is welcome to post an answer if they'd like - we just want to manage expectations. 

 

That effect would probably perform best if you use canvas for the rendering layer, frankly.  You can use GSAP, of course, to do all the animation. 

 

You are welcome to post in the "Jobs & Freelance" forum for paid consulting, or contact us directly. 

 

Otherwise, if you've got a GSAP-specific question just post that here along with a minimal demo and we'd be happy to take a look.
