Apply post-processing to your guided project

1. Overview

Last time, you added cameras to your guided project scene to control what the user can see and what they should be looking at.

Post-processing allows you to apply cinematic effects to your cameras and create the visual language that users are used to seeing in film and games.

In this tutorial, you’ll add post-processing effects to your guided project.

2. Review the design document requirements

Before you resume work on your project, remind yourself of the project requirements specific to post-processing:

1. Open the design document for the project you selected:

• Alien video game shop

• Architectural rendering

• Beachside town

2. In the Project Specifications section of the design document, locate the post-processing requirements.

3. Apply what you learned in your project

You’re now ready to apply your new skills in order to meet the requirements outlined in your design document.

In the following steps, you’ll find some project-specific considerations and hints. Go to the section that is relevant to your selected project:

• Alien video game shop → Step 4

• Beachside town → Step 5

• Architectural rendering → Step 6

4. Alien video games shop requirements
