Adjustable Background Blur/Bokeh in Lens Studio

Learn how to use a slider to control the strength of background blur in Lens Studio! In this tutorial we'll go over how to add an adjustable background blur (or "bokeh" as it is sometimes called, although it technically isn't bokeh in our case) to a lens. We'll go over how to apply the blur to just the background, add a slider to let the user adjust the strength of the blur, as well as how you can layer post effects on top of the completed lens.

Thank you! It's very helpful!
And I was wondering that could we control the feathering of the Portrait Background Segmentation texture?

[@ModelsbyMike3d]

You can definitely adjust the feathering via the inspector panel. I'm not sure if you can do it via script though. docs.snap.com/lens-studio/references/guides/lens-features/segmentation/fullscreen-segmentation/#add-a-segmentation-texture

10:40 from where you input script component

Staring at 14:09 I go over how to add everything.

My face effects layer does not show after adding background blur. How can I have both face effects and blurred background?

[@ModelsbyMike3d]

I think you can create a new camera after your orthographic camera (but before the UI camera) and put your effects in there. You’ll need to check the render order in the Scene Config to make sure the new camera comes before the UI camera there too. If that’s not working, you’ll have to use the render target as the input to the new camera, output that to a new render target, and then use that as the input to the UI camera. If you get stuck, post over on the official forum and include some screenshots support.lensstudio.snapchat.com/hc/en-us/community/topics

@@ModelsbyMike3d Having the same issue here. It would be great if you could make a tutorial on that, please, Mike! Many thanks in advance! Cheers!

Can you adjust the blur? If so, how?

[@ModelsbyMike3d]

You sure can! I go over everything you need to know in the video.
