These plugins will let you make the most use of a ZDepth pass that you often render out from a 3d application. It's a pass that stores the information about the distance from camera for each pixel - there is really a lot you can do with this data.

The package contains 3 plugins:

  • Z_Depth Compose - composite two layers based on their depth maps,
  • Z_Depth Cut - select pixels based on a depth map,
  • Z_Depth Shadow - project a layer onto depth map.

Note: The plugins in this package are also a part of the EFX Render Elements suite.  If you already have it, you don't need these. If on the other hand you buy these and later decide that you'd like to have the full EFX Render Elements suite, you will get a discount equal to the amount you spent on EFX ZDepth tools.

Upgrade offer: If you already purchased ZDepth Tools and want to upgrade to the full Render Elements suite just log in and the full suite will be automatically discounted by the full price of the the ZDepth Tools.
