correct z-depth and relative multipass workflow Tweet

[vesta]

hello!
I'm a newbie, I'm still playing trying to reach a decent depth pass and also I don't know how to save the beauty pass without DoF.
Is there a tuts/resource where it's explained well?
thanks a lot!

Hi vesta,
about Z-depth, please have a look at this video from the c4doctane dev:

It's about c4doctane and After Effects, but the principle is the same for Standalone and other plugins.
And here is the general documentation about Info passes.

About the Beaty passes without DOF, you need to completely remove the DOF effect from your Thin-lens Camera node, by setying at 0 the Aperture or the Aperture Edge value, of by increasing a lot the Fstop value like at 1000.

Additionally, is there a proper tutorial vid on how to render out Motion Vector passes to use with RSMB in AE?

Can't really find a proper workflow for this.
