not all that hard

1st motion track where you want the light to follow this is sometimes difficult but can be done pretty easily

then you use the path that it gives you and use 3d stroke it's a particular plugin but its dope as fuck then you can play with a bunch of setting and sliders to get it to look like neon or what ever

and this is all in after effects...
