This is yet another application of Twixtor Pro for still photography and 3D imaging, this time together with Blender 2.6.
The previously generated depth map has been rendered in Blender after the application of a Displacement Modifier using Cycles engine.

This is a final example of selective focus obtained in post production using Twixtor Pro.
Twixtor Pro is good not only for videos but also for still photography.I have two pictures (left and right) of the same subject taken at two different angles – Pictures copyright Giovanni Remigi
Using these two pictures and the motion vector generator coming with Twixtor Pro, together with After Effect blending modes Add, Subtract and Difference, I can generate the following Depth Map.
Finally, I used the generated depth map and one of the original pictures, together with the Lens Blur effect coming with After Effect, to generate a shallow focus centered on the eyes.
Enjoy,
Giovanni

In case anybody is interested, this was my success in creating a Depth Map using Twixtor Pro and After Effect. Using the Depth Map and a Lens Blur filter I can select the focal plane and the level of blur in post production
The more I use Twixtor Pro the more I love it 🙂

Thanks for the link and the note about 0.5, I actually missed that point.
The Depth of Field simulation works pretty well with Twixtor Pro + AE Camera Lens Blur.To actually select object moving in one direction and object moving in the other direction, i.e. background and foreground of the stereoscopic window, it is enough to use the Subtract blending mode instead of the
Difference blending mode.Thanks,

I maybe found a better solution in After Effect.
1 – I extract the Motion Vector using the “Motion Vectors: Create” plugin coming with Twixtor Pro.
2 – Then using a “Channel Mixer” effect I extract the horizonat movement only, i.e. the red channel.
3 – Eventually I use this red channel as a Blur Map for the “Camera Lens Blur” effect.Giovanni
