It all depends on the look you want your laser bolts to have.
Technically a laser almost has no width, so very thin lines without perspective deformation are sufficient.
Check out the latest Star Wars trailer and you'll see that they're almost all straight lines with no tapering.
Also most laser bolts are no longer than 2-3 frames max, so the method you're describing might be overly complicated. Personally I'd use a 2D approach and do it by hand.
Do you have any actual footage yet, or is this just theoretical?
