    Hi,
    I want to create a strobe light, similar to the one in this gif.



    I'm pretty new to lighting in unity, so i'm not quite sure how to go about making this. Would it be easier to write a script or use an animation to do this? Any tips would be really appreciated.

    You'd need to write a custom script for that, something that game time and would modulate light's intensity against it. Alternatively, you could just get an asset that does that for you from our Asset Store: https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/particles-effects/light-behavior-49434
