Depth Of Field
Depth of field (DoF) is the area that appears sharp in your photo. It's usually measured as a focus plane that doesn't simply cut off on both ends but has a smooth.
In optics, particularly as it relates to film and photography, depth of field (DOF) is the distance between the nearest and farthest objects in a scene that appear acceptably sharp in an image. Although a lens can precisely focus at only one distance at a time, the decrease in sharpness is gradual on each side of the focused distance, so that within the DOF, the unsharpness is imperceptible under normal viewing conditions.

It can be used to get the viewer to focus on a certain part of your scene.A diagram of how Depth of Field works. Source; en.wikipedia.org. Adding DoF (Depth of Field) to Source FilmMaker is a relatively easy and painless task to accomplish. First of all, we will need our camera to be in the animation set. Make sure you have a scene camera, then click on the button, and chose the 'Create Animation Set(s) for Existing Element(s)'. There should be a camera named 'Camera1'.
Add it to the animation set list.Next, we will need to change the 'focalDistance' of the camera. This is located underneath the sliders that have 'Zero, Smooth, Jitter' etc. By default:Go onto the Motion Editor (TAB by default) and drag the focalDistance slider either way. You should notice a purple sheet take up some of the screen. It will probably look something like this:So let's explain what it is. In short; whatever is inside the purple bit (the bit that clips through stuff) is what will be in focus.
Anything behind, or in front, will become out of focus. We will also need to turn the slider 'aperture' up. Nono, not the company.
Somehow, he never looks clueless and always conveys his character's years of weariness in the face of murderers and criminal behavior.Moreover, his grim and tired voice would match well with the ongoing narration Max provides. Because the show trades in bouncy humor as much as guts and gore, there's also been a platform for his goofy charm and comedic timing. More often than not, Boreanaz gets the thankless job of recoiling at the sight of gross human remains or asking the scientist characters dopey questions about the evidence. Max payne cast.
That went out of business years ago. The aperture is what applies the blur to the camera. Once you have turned it up to an amount you like (I personally like 0.5) and hit TAB. Now you should see some blur!Here is what you should get:Before:After:The difference of the shed in the background is the most obvious. Play around with different setting until you get one you like.
