// KEY HIGHLIGHTS

1. Post Processing Shader Effects

Recreated high-fidelity real-time screen effects by translating visual references into polished, production-ready shader implementations using Material Graph (A GLSL based Visual Scripting Graph). Authored learning resources on material and shader concepts for effect creators.
