Included with Buena Depth Cue are 7 plug-in effects including

3D Composite
Allows 2D footage with a depth channel, such as you might generate in Maya, 3D
Studio Max, or other 3D applications, to interact with After Effects' 3D layers.

Depth
Displays the depth of each layer in grayscale for use as a gradient map with
other plugins, or with other applications.

Falloff Lighting
Lights your layers realistically. Layers farther away from lights are illuminated
less than those near lights.

Fog
Shrouds your layers in a light haze or a deep, murky mist. Objects farther away
from the camera have more fog applied to them than objects close to the camera.

Rack Focus
Produces realistic depth of field effects and focus pulls, including simulating
boke and anamorphic lens effects.

Camera Mapper
Turn 2D stills and footage into 3D scenes right in After Effects. It works by
projecting parts of your 2D footage onto 3D solids in a composition, then rendering
the composition from different angles.

Flipside
Maps one layer onto the back side of another layer. This allows you to flip the front
layer over to reveal the back layer. It does this without creating any gap between the
2 layers, and without the occlusion problems that sometimes show up when trying to put
2 layers very close together in a composition.

To use Depth Cue with a 3D program, you must render a file with depth information
included. The most popular such file format these days is OpenEXR, developed by
Industrial Light & Magic and supported by most modern 3D applications. In order
to read depth and other channels from an EXR into After Effects and Depth Cue,
