Depth Cue 1.0

Depth Cue is a set of plug-ins for Adobe After Effects that adds realistic depth effects to 3D layers. Each effect works on a 3D layer and changes based on the location of the layer, lights, and cameras in 3D space.

3D Composite - Allows 2D footage with a depth channel, such as you might generate in Maya, 3D Studio Max, or other 3D applications, to interact with After Effects 3D layers.

Depth - Displays the depth of each layer in grayscale for use as a gradient map with other plugins, or with other applications.

Falloff Lighting - Lights your layers realistically. Layers farther away from lights are illuminated less than those near lights.

Fog - Shrouds your layers in a light haze or a deep, murky mist. Objects farther away from the camera have more fog applied to them than objects close to the camera.

Rack Focus - Produces realistic depth of field effects and focus pulls, including simulating boke and anamorphic lens effects.
