Sapphire Plug-ins for Autodesk: ZComp

ZComp

Layers a source input over or under a second source input based on the difference of two depth images. The DepthA input should be a 'z' depth image corresponding to the objects in the first input, and DepthB should be a 'z' depth image corresponding to the objects in the second input.

Inputs:

SourceA: The first input image.

SourceB: The second input image.

DepthA: The depth image corresponding to the objects in SourceA

DepthB: The depth image corresponding to the objects in SourceB

Parameters:

Load Preset: Push-button .
Brings up the Preset Browser to browse all available presets for this effect.

Save Preset: Push-button .
Brings up the Preset Save dialog to save a preset for this effect.

Anti Alias: Default: 0, Range: 0 or greater.
The amount of depth difference over which to interpolate the source inputs instead of taking just the closer one. Specified as a fraction of the entire depth range: 0 does no antialiasing, 1 interpolates over the entire depth range.

Z Buffer: Popup menu, Default: White is Near .
How to interpret the values in the Z buffer.

Black is Near: Black pixels in the Z buffer indicate that the object at that point is near (close to you), and white means far away.

White is Near: White pixels in the Z buffer indicate that the object at that point is near (close to you), and black means far away.

Params3:

Mocha: Default: 0, Range: 0 or greater, Shared .
Brings up the Mocha window for tracking footage and generating masks.

Blur Mocha: Default: 0, Range: 0 or greater, Shared .
Blurs the Mocha Mask by this amount before using. This can be used to soften the edges or quantization artifacts of the mask, and smooth out the time displacements.

Mocha Opacity: Default: 1, Range: 0 to 1, Shared .
Controls the strength of the Mocha mask. Lower values reduce the intensity of the effect.

Invert Mocha: Check-box, Default: off, Shared .
If enabled, the black and white of the Mocha Mask are inverted before applying the effect.

Show Mocha Only: Check-box, Default: off, Shared .
Bypass the effect and show the Mocha Mask itself.

Bypass Mocha: Check-box, Default: off, Shared .
Ignore the Mocha Mask and apply the effect to the entire source clip.
