Digieffects plugin is a versatile software tool that offers a wide range of features to enhance videos and images. It is designed to be user-friendly and efficient, making it an ideal choice for professional video editors and enthusiasts alike.
This software review is about the Depth Cue set of plugins, which are easy-to-use and efficient tools for adding depth to your compositions. Each plugin in this set comes with a dedicated helper plugin that automates the process of applying the effect to all the layers in your composition and linking all the parameters to a single set of controls.
The only exception to this rule is the 3D Composite plugin, which can be applied to a single 2D layer and therefore doesn't require a helper plugin. Thanks to this feature, the plugins can render their effect in real-time, even when you're not playing back the composition but simply manipulating the camera or layers around.
It's recommended to always apply the effects using the helper plugins rather than by hand, even if you're only working on a single layer. This is because the effects contain hidden controls that the helper plugins connect to various layer properties using expressions. Don't worry if you're not familiar with expressions, the helper plugins do all the work for you.
Let's take the Fog plugin as an example of how to apply the effects. With the help of the helper plugin, you can easily add atmospheric depth to your entire composition or just a specific layer, with a few simple clicks. The control panel offers many options to customize the fog effect, including density, color, and distance.
Overall, the Depth Cue set of plugins is a valuable addition to any videographer's toolkit. It delivers high-quality results and saves you time by automating the tedious tasks of applying the effects to your composition, making your workflow more efficient and enjoyable.
