BASIC QUESTION about creating depth of field with moving subjects! please help!

Hi all, so I'm new to Smoke and Flame etc.

 

I essentially have one thing I'd like to do. That is:

 

Create depth of field on moving images to simulate a much more expensive camera with good depth of field.

 

Can somebody please tell me which program (Smoke, or Flame, or something else?) would be best for this?

 

Also, I see the Smoke 2015 version will have a 3d motion tracker. Is this the answer to what I'm trying to do?

 

Please help. I've tried basic programs and plugins for FCPX, and I know there are some ways to do this in AE, but it seems like the tracking can be quite limited and very time intensive and manually done.

 

I'm interested in a basic and very dependable way to track moving objects and blur the background to create a fake depth of field.

 

WHICH PROGRAM AND BASICALLY HOW TO DO IT OR WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR WOULD BE SO APPRECIATED!

 

THANKS SO MUCH!

You would use the Depth of Field Node in either Smoke or Flame.
