The process of creating screen effects is one in which we grab a full-screen image (or texture), use a shader to process its pixels on the GPU, and then send it back to Unity's renderer to apply it to the whole rendered image of the game. This allows us to perform per-pixel operations on the rendered image of the game in real time, giving us a more global artistic control.

By utilizing a screen effect, we can adjust the screen's final look as a whole, thereby giving us more Photoshop-like control over our game's final appearance.
In order to get a screen effect system up and running, we have to set up a single script...
