What is this?
This is a card shader made in Unity with shader graph showcasing a holographic / foil effect with an animated 3D model ‘inside’. I decided to go for a sci-fi theme. The shiny, hologram effect changes based on view direction and is also visible on the card ‘window’. The window also features a stencil shader which keeps the 3D model and animated background within the card. I added some distorted, glitch effect shader to the 3D text to suggest text on a retro CRT computer screen.
Some light bloom and exposure post-processing added.
Features:
- custom stencil shader
- texture masking
- animated UV offsetting
- custom forward renderer
