MPP Wk11: Data Layers & Sequencer (Chaos Destruction & Post Process)
Notes: This project began as a way for me to show my understanding of data layers and the sequencer. Along the way, I used the chaos destruction system, the UE bomb, audio, and camera shake to make my sequence more interesting. I teleported the player character. Some things had changed with data layers and camera shake in the newest update; so, part of my experimentation involved a lot of research, trial and error, and seeing what could and could not be added or unloaded from the data layer system (i.e., foliage, post process volumes, atmosphere, etc. ). I took the opportunity to leave some comments on YouTube videos and the UE Dev community forums to help the next person. I used post process effects in an unbound way for the dark world with the crystals; there is a field of view and camera shake effect on the player as well as a tint and bloom to the entire scene. I also used post process effects and some material magic to create an underwater feel when the camera dipped under the water line; in truth, my underwater attempt was not perfect, but with more time and research, this could be better.
Micro Passion Projects are intended to be short projects that can be completed in as little as 30 minutes or up to 4 hours. The goal is to try things, learn things, showcase things, have references to look at later, and have fun.

(There were probably more than this as there were a lot of changes to UE5.3)
