I actually used the Bloom tutorial from learnopengl and always wondered why it looked so bad. I've always though bloom was just a very simple two-pass post-processing effect and now I finally see how wrong I was. Thank you so much for making this video!

@@bryanlozano1741 Hi! I'm happy to hear that! I did indeed use learnopengl for the bloom in my gravity simulator. If I ever come back to that project in the future, I will probably improve the bloom effect, but I wouldn't make a dedicated video about it (because this one exists) but it could be part of a third video in the gravity simulator series.

This was an awesome style of video dude! I'd love to see more stuff like this :)

I loved the format of this one Cherno. Very informative and a joy to watch. Thank you.

Great video! I especially liked that you referenced the CoD presentation. However I have a small nitpick with the implementation: bloom should not be added to the scene color, as adding increases the brightness of the image. This way the bloom magically creates energy out of thin air, which is at odds with energy conservation. An alternative is to lerp the images instead, the interpolation factor can be used to control the strength of the effect. Apart from being energy conserving this has two benefits: firstly the images with and without bloom will be similar in terms of overall brightness. Secondly the thresholding can be removed, which results in a more natural effect. The latter is also mentioned in Jimenez's presentation.

I have a small nitpick with your nitpick: Provided that the adding occurs before the tone mapping, or that tone mapping handles it correctly, no energy is created out of nothing, since tone mapping, a.k.a. crushing the range, destroys both energy and detail information such that you get something realistic/visually pleasing. Lerping will actually give you a worse visual result since it's linear whereas tone mapping can have nonlinearities which better model how light/camera behave. And lastly, a game engine's job is to fool the eye as fast as it's possible, not to run a full physics simulation which preserves all invariants. I don't think there are any physically accurate real time game engines, they all use tricks and approximations.

@Mempo1

@@blacklistnr1 Bloom is typically applied on top of the non-tonemapped result of the physically based lighting result so it does break the correctness of the PBR theory. Personally I'd prefer the lerp because its less of a magic number compared to having a threshold.

@blacklistnr1

3 жыл бұрын

@@Mempo1 "Less ... magic" :)) love the reason, perfectly valid. My point was that adding a thresholded bloom before tonemapping isn't "bad" and lerping images to preserve energy isn't always visually pleasing as it can muddy gradients, as the standard RGB color space isn't uniform to our eyes, so you need some non-linearities to make it look good. By the time you're in the "what does look good to a human?" part, physical correctness falls a bit lower in your priority list.

I quite liked the effort poured into this one! The format and the explainations were really neat.

I like your videos in general, but this was absolutely the best. So much information, so much research, great format. Perfection.

This new style of video is GREAT!

This is probably one of the better explanation of how bloom works that I've ever seen, especially with the photoshop part. Liked and subbed!

1:12 overuse of the bloom effect really causes discomfort, thanks for sharing! Awesome video format, so much work, research and experience in one video.

Great video!! So happy to hear that a rendering course on the way!!

Need more videos like this from you for more visual effects. This 'Bloom' video is still the undisputed greatest video on youtube, 2 years after its release.

Phenomenal video, really great deep dive into the inner working of bloom, introduced in a really intuitive way. Can't wait for your course!

Wow, this was fascinating to dig into. Thanks so much for all the details. Learned so so much from this one.

THANK YOU DUDE !! I've been doing research on bloom for a few months to implement it into my drawings and make a tutorial about it. This basically confirms all of my research. However I didn't know about the downsampling technique, thank you for sharing it.

Searched for a good bloom tutorial everywhere on the web, couldn't find any! and the next day youtube recommends this Amazing video! Thank you so much.

We asked for a Bloom tutorial, you delivered right-away. Awesome, keep it up!

I usually don't comment on videos but I think this one deserved it. Very well thought out and brilliantly presented. I hope we see more content like this in the future!

I understand it might require a big effort but I'd love more videos in this format.

Excellent video, the step-by-step analysis of another engine where you show each texture was the best part of it all. Thx!

I generally think I have a pretty good grasp on how the 3d graphics I work with are made. Even though I'm an artist, I love to see all the technicalities behind the scenes. I learned a lot watching this, never knew it did so many passes! The bloom in unity's HDRP starts with the threshold all the way down or something strange like that because it's "physically accurate" I can imagine it just blurs dark pixels less and bright pixels more. The gears in your head really start turning after watching something like this! I would love to see more videos like these! About: lightmapping SSAO Voxelized effects like VXGI and VXAO the all-new Mesh shaders There is so much to learn and know!

very good explanation of the bloom effect, thank you :)

More of videos like this. The style is just right for learning.

Epic intro, epic graphics, epic ad, epic humor. This video is absolutely epic! Thank you for the effort you put into these videos cherno!

Fantastic video Jan! This video style IS definitely the way forward.

So glad to have you back! Lots of love and appreciation! :)

Absolutely fantastic video! I am implementing my own Vulkan based game engine and thought bloom had something to do with fragment shader lighting! Didn't know it was such a complex effect...

Awesome video! Thank you so much

22:50 -- That's exactly the reason. Since you were looking at URP (previously called LWRP), it is meant to have backwards compatibility for older hardware. It's the same reason that the terrain doesn't do indirect rendering in URP. HDRP is a different story, though. It actually is targeting newer hardware. Also, some platforms like VROS didn't yet support Vulkan in 2020.x or even OpenGL ES 3.1, so compute was not supported even though the hardware itself could do it.

That's a neat format, keep it up!

Excellent medium-high level view of bloom! AFAIK you are right in that Unity doesn't use compute shaders for calculating bloom to support older hardware. I'm not sure why they don't implement a compute version and switch the implementation by querying the features of the GPU. They could easily do it since the logic for bloom exists in separate source files they could just link to. I think any modern engine should be 100% compute when it comes to post effects and I'm glad to see that is the route you took.

Incredible video. Such high quality and dedication

I'm not a game developer, but I am slowly getting into video making and a bit of VFX. And knowing how computers simulate bloom helps me understand how that'd work in a program like After Effects. Thanks!!

My conceptual understanding of what bloom actually does is much better now, thank you.

Finally, someone have said it! Thank you! I tried the lessons and completely refuse the result in my project! I'll give it a try again!

Awesome video, would love to see more videos like this

An excellent explanation of the bloom effect.

This is so awesome!! Thank you for this!!!

this is great! thanks for putting this together!

Absolutely loved this more technical video focusing on one effect. Please do more!

Great vid! There's one bloom effect I really like that was in Call of Duty Black Ops 1, where the bloom size is separated into X and Y axes (they stretched it out vertically quite often, one example is in the main menu), and I haven't seen it replicated in other games that often, I think it's a super neat artistic tool! Would love to replicate it for my own game.

You might be thinking of either anamorphic bokeh, which is a depth of field effect simulating fancy film lenses, or the anamorphic lens flare JJ Abrams style, which is a camera artifact simulating misused fancy film lenses when exposed to too much light, similar to bloom.

Really great explanation. Love it!

Wow, I really enjoyed the video!! Great work!

Great video! Very well put together

Thanks man, missed these slides. Will fix bloom in my engine :)

Amazing video! I was already aware of these bloom techniques as I did extensive dig into graphics rendering in the past, but I am sure there's a LOT of people benefiting from this right at this moment. Also a suttle note (taken from Unreal Engine) - the most realistic approach to this is using a threshold value of 0.0. The threshold is something you use for artistic control, but in case pure realism is what you're looking for, a threshold of 0.0 is the way to go. Oh, and at 18:21 blending using mix is the more nautral looking and realistic approach where you use a very, very small mix coefficient for the bloom texture. Edit. The reason why that approach is more realistic is because it effectively ensures energy conservation.

@@vaanidel2117 Very much depends on the style you're going for (clean lens or not, surrounding air humidity etc.). Also, you may want yo mix in a bit extra to fake atmospheric scatter if you do not have volumetric lighting calculations preset, while having lower value if you do. But generally around 0.00005-0.0002 is what I would go for.

I would recommend the "screen" blending mode. I like the way it overlays the bloom better, and you don't need so many blur passes

There are many reasons why screen pass effects are still done in PS rather than CS. If nothing specific to compute is being used (sharedgroup mem or async), PS is mostly faster than CS, at least in my experience working with GCN arch. One of the main reason is that PS writes through ROPs (which has an orthogonal cache to L1/L2) while CS writes through cached memory, so the CS execution is way more sensible to cache coherency.

@jcm2606

2 жыл бұрын

Yep, but there are ways to improve cache coherency in compute through "thread group swizzling" or "lane remapping" (NVIDIA calls it thread group swizzling, AMD calls it lane remapping, both are basically the same thing done in different ways), which basically alters your sampling coordinates for looking up textures to improve cache throughput by making texture accesses more spatially coherent. There's a few different ways of doing it, you could just use tiles (NVIDIA's thread group ID swizzling blog post uses tiles), you could use a Morton-Z curve, or you could use a Hilberts curve, but ultimately they all do the same thing. In fact, it seems like at least NVIDIA is investigating this lately on Ampere (probably Turing and Pascal, too), as I've noticed that some workloads where PS would outperform CS have actually switched to having CS outperform PS, and the only thing I can think of is the driver's making this same optimisation.

The quality of this video is amazing.
