I have had a few other students ask about the shaders in my demoreel, so rather than confuse them by trying to write it all out, I figure a video tutorial might be easier!
Hope its helpful!
Ps. You get the same results easier by using Ramp Shaders, the reason I use this method is so the backlighting effect can easily be adjusted for the whole character with just one simple ramp texture.

Thanks a lot Ciaran Dempsey.
Left a coment on your reel, awesome stuff!
I think you basically just drop the falloff map that goes into mayas "incandescence" slot, into the self illumination slot in in the max material. Though Im sure the levels would need to be adjusted.
Ill need to take a look at max to make sure, but will send you a message when I check it out.
