Devlog for Self Study 5: Lighting and Shadergraph

With the help of a tutorial (linked below) by Brakeys, a scene was created of a monkey head lit up by 2 glowing planes. The lighting in this scene was baked in using Unity's progressive Lightmapper.

Another shader was made with Shadergraph with another tutorial by Brakeys, this shader is a dissolve effect.

A water shader was also created.

Beautiful water

Updated Lighting

The scenes lighting was updated with some point lights around the public toilet and a glowing effect coming from  the lighthouse. A fog effect was also added using the Unity lighting fog setting.

Updated lighting

The lighthouse also has a rotating spotlight that shines out over the scene.

Tutorial 5 Post processing and Cinemachine

Cinemachine

Cinemachine was installed from the asset manager and used to create a camera that switches positions when the player enters a trigger collider.

Post Processing

Some post processing effects were added using the post processing stack v2 downloaded from the asset manager.

A post processing volume was set up with a box collider to trigger the post processing effects when the player enters a certain zone.

Bloom was also added to make lights in the scene appear to glow

Reflection:

Something I would like to do with the bloom is to have its intensity cycle from low to high to make the glowing effect cooler.
