silhouette-2023.5 : Nodes : Depth of Field
Depth of Field
Description
Depth of Field can be added to a scene by isolating and blurring only a portion of the image. The amount of blurring is directly proportionate to the luminance of the matte settings, a gradient or an input image.
Node Group
Diffusion.
Controls
Presets
To select a preset, choose one from the Presets tab.
Depth
Selects the source for the selective blur effect.
Matte
Use a matte for the depth source.
Grad
Use a gradient for the depth source.
Input
Use an image as the depth source. This is useful for 3D programs which render out depth mattes.
Blur
Sets how much the image is blurred.
Grad
Depth of Field can optionally use a gradient that limits where the node is applied. Grad is the transition area that goes from the blurred portion to the original image. Its direction, corners and size can be adjusted. Go to the Grad section of Common Node Controls to see how the Grad controls work.
Matte
A matte can be used to create the depth of field effect. Go to the Matte section of Common Node Controls to see how the Matte controls work.
