Visual Tech Art | Worn Out VHS Post Process Effect and creative uses of Vector Noise node (UE4, valid for UE5) @VisualTechArt | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 7 minutes ago
-- Apparently YouTube had an hard time compressing my video with this effect on :D
In this video I go through the development of a Post Process Material that simulates the look of a worn out VHS tape.
It is achieved 100% procedurally, without using any textures, thanks to the heavy use of the Vector Noise node, of which this video gives a bunch of useful application examples.

The video is divided in several chapters, each one contains an element of the effect:
0:00 - Intro
0:47 - Scene Sampling (basics of a Post Process Material)
1:58 - Chromatic Aberration
5:45 - Tiny Blur
6:47 - Horizontal Intermittence
7:33 - Colour Correction
8:57 - Image Noise
11:07 - Colour Degradation
13:09 - Flagging
16:35 - Tape Degradation
19:23 - Outro

In this video I apply the concepts explained in my previous videos to a real work case scenario.
I go through the building of a weather reacting material, starting from a dry condition and procedurally calculating the wet one.
This approach takes inspiration from how Naughty Dog approached the same problem when developing the Uncharted games.

Previous video of the serie: https://youtu.be/Ptuw9mxekh0
This is a follow up of the first video of a series I want to make about transforming 3D renders in hand-drawn images.
Its a topic that always fascinated me quite a lot and I had the opportunity to work quite intensively on in the past year.
Here we go through the standard practice for making an outline art stylized Post Process Material. A perfect match for a Studio Ghibli, Toon or Cel Shading style type of rendering!

[DISCLAIMER] I know, this video is not very easy to follow, it requires some more than basic knowledge of the subject, but I think everyone should be able to wrap up his head around it eventually.
Here I illustrate my personal take on getting a realistic and good looking wind animation for the grass. As always Im more than open to any feedback and discussion, so feel free to express your thoughts in the comment section :)

![Height Blending Material Layers [UE4, valid for UE5]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hdjRNT3DGTM/hqdefault.jpg "Height Blending Material Layers [UE4, valid for UE5]
In this video I show an algorithm useful to blend two or more materials using heightmaps data.
This video is a follow-up of my older one: https://youtu.be/qvTL6Brfkpc
Check it if youre missing something I dont explain here.
You can use this to obtain a better quality on your landscape material, especially if youre using Megascans textures, since they always come with an heightmap.

In this video we go through the realization of an analogic offset print dotted pattern post process material, for a printed comic stylized look. This tutorials covers the creation of the grid of dots, the reproduction of an image through discrete shapes, the conversion from RGB to four colour process (CMYK) and viceversa, plus a bonus.
