Bring the look of film to your digital photos. Twenty emulations in a single list: the film looks of digital cameras (soft cinema, Clikclak and its cinema print look, Infrared and its false infrared colors…) and typical 1980s film stocks (portrait negatives 160 and 400, golden consumer film, legendary slide film, tungsten cinema film, disposable camera, expired film), then three black and whites. Fine-tune the look with global and red, green, blue curves, add grain, red halation around highlights, light leaks, the orange date stamp of compact cameras and a print, instant or 35 mm negative frame.
It is a setting of colors, contrast and grain that imitates how a film stock reacts to light: tints in the shadows and highlights, saturation specific to each color, more or less dense blacks.
The global curve (RGB) adjusts brightness by zone: lift the bottom to open up the shadows, bend it into an S for more contrast. The red, green and blue curves tint shadows and highlights separately, for example bluish shadows and warm highlights. Click to add a point, drag it, double-click to remove it.
Yes: choose the “Image” format and the “Original” PNG resolution to export the photo at its real size.
Yes: turn on “Animate” so the grain moves and the image flickers like projected film, then export as MP4.
No: the looks are inspired by the great families of analog film, but they have descriptive names and are not affiliated with any manufacturer.
