A method includes: receiving three-dimensional (3D) information generated by a first 3D system, the 3D information including images of a scene and depth data about the scene; identifying, using the depth data, first image content in the images associated with a depth value that satisfies a criterion; and generating modified 3D information by applying first shading regarding the identified first image content. The modified 3D information can be provided to a second 3D system. The scene can contain an object in the images, and generating the modified 3D information can include determining a surface normal for second image content of the object, and applying second shading regarding the second image content based on the determined surface normal. A portion of the object can have a greater depth value than another portion, and second shading can be applied regarding a portion of the images where the second portion is located.
