In this video, I show how to create a reactive material in Unreal Engine 5 that changes based on camera angle and world position. It’s perfect for all kinds of camera-based effects like holographic displays, trading card shines, Pokemon-style foil cards, animated collectibles. Using only the UE5 Material Editor, you’ll learn how to drive material logic with View Direction, World Position, and Fresnel effects, creating a fully procedural, real-time shader that reacts to how the player moves around it.
