Instant Depth Map, made by MahiCG and sold through aescripts, turns a flat image or clip into a usable depth map with one click. It runs on the Depth Anything V2 model, so instead of painting grey gradients by hand, you apply the effect and let the tool work out what sits near the camera and what falls away.

Key Features

  • One click depth map generation from still images and video footage
  • Built on the Depth Anything V2 model for believable depth reading
  • Six animation presets that add ready made camera style motion
  • Colourised depth view plus edge refinement tools for cleaner borders
  • Depth of field creation straight from the generated depth map

How to Download

  1. Use the download button on this page, or Download from the official site to open the product page.
  2. Get the plugin and install it with the aescripts + aeplugins manager app.
  3. Restart your host app, apply Instant Depth Map to a layer and generate your map.

System Requirements

Instant Depth Map needs Adobe After Effects or Premiere Pro on macOS or Windows. Processing is GPU accelerated where supported, and it handles 8, 16 and 32 bit colour projects with multi frame rendering ready.

FAQs

Does it work on video, or only on photos?

Both. It reads depth from still images and from moving footage, so a whole shot can gain parallax or focus effects.

What can I do with the depth map afterwards?

Use it for 2.5D camera moves, depth based blur, fog and colour grading, or feed it to other effects that accept a depth layer.

Do I need to draw the depth map myself?

No. The model builds it for you. Edge refinement controls are there when a border needs a tidy up afterwards.
