In this sprint, I helped create a new introductory level that precedes the main experience. I created the sequencer, adding in the introductory video, as well as adding in the candy tin and fireflies that appear at the tail end. I adjusted the candy tin blueprint so that in the level, the player picks up the candy tin and the screen fades and then loads in the main experience. In order to get the effect looking good, I modified the dissolve material function so that the masking is created by the bounding box of the object and will always work properly from bottom to top.
Additionally, I updated the post-processing material again. The line weight varied, especially in areas of overlapping meshes like the grass, and so that coupled with better matching the Ghibli style we decided to have the toon lines only on the main characters. I switched the material from masking out the custom depth from the material to only applying the lines to the custom depth, and comparing the scene depth and custom depth to mask out the Niagara-based fire.
