Hi Kim,
   By Z-depth I presume you mean z-pics ?? if that is the case why do you
think they are a waste of time.
  I use them every now and again, and they work fine using After Effects !!
Just wondering why you didn't like them

Cheers

ALEX

Or just render out a depth pass. Either use the built in Xsi one or do it by
putting a grad texture on the whole scene. Put all the scene geometry in a
group, put a texture projection and material on the group. It's a whole lot
easier to control than the builtin depth pass and for me, zdepth is a waste
of time.

ct: DOF
with Zdepth in After Effects<BR>&gt; <BR>&gt; <BR>&gt; &gt; Hi,<BR>&gt; &gt;
<BR>&gt; &gt; I have to do a DOF effect in After Effects, but I don't know how!
<BR>&gt; &gt; I usually use Zpics in after, but I can't m beacause of AA. And I
<BR>&gt; &gt; can't either do it in XSI FXTree, because it's part of a <BR>&gt;
whole project <BR>&gt; &gt; that another person will be compositing in After.
<BR>&gt; &gt;<BR>&gt; &gt; Has anyone used a Zdepth pass in after?<BR>&gt; &gt;
<BR>&gt; &gt; TIA,<BR>&gt; &gt; Rob<BR>&gt; &gt; ---<BR>&gt; &gt; Unsubscribe?
