Abstract
Methods and systems for providing an intersection effect are disclosed. For example, there is disclosed a method for intersecting a first digital image and a second digital image. In this method the first and second digital images are mixed to produce a first composite image in which the first digital image is layered on top of the second digital image. The first and second digital images are also mixed to produce a second composite image in which the second digital image is layered on top of the first digital image. The first composite image and the second composite image are then mixed using a wipe pattern to produce a target digital image that is the intersection of the first digital image and the second digital image. The wipe pattern is a function of a difference in depth between the first digital image and the second digital image.
