Triggering switches or matinees by looking?

I've got my environment built and fully textured and now struggling to get this first event setup.

At points in the game I want looking at certain things to trigger a matinee and/or audio clip

It looks like I need to use a linetrace but I'm struggling to set it up.

Anyone got any blueprints or guidance of where to start?

    Have you tried out mitchemmc's template?

    I've tested with the newest 4.4.1 preview and it seems to work almost perfectly - but he said he'll be updating it soon as well. It has examples of gauging where the player is looking.

    Thanks yeah. I' built mine starting with that.
    I kept the colour changing orbs hoping I could use their blueprints as a starting point, but still struggling to adapt it how I want.
