Everything a $500+ plugin does for your grade — without the price tag.

Hover a control to see what it does.

Essentials — Everyday presets — cinema/editorial and social platform formats. Sets Crop + Vignette + Grain + Contrast all at once. Reframe and Crop Offset are left untouched, always manual.

By Genre — Presets with a strong, deliberate genre/mood identity. Sets Crop + Vignette + Grain + Contrast all at once. Every parameter can still be tweaked by hand after applying one.

Advanced — Off: only Preset, each section’s ‘Enable’ toggle, and its Intensity. On: every fine control in each section.

Preview — Normal: the image as usual. Vignette: a color tint showing where/how much it darkens. Grain: neutral gray + pure grain, to judge size/texture. Skin/Midtones: shows where contrast protection is kicking in.

Enable Bars — Turns the crop bars on or off.

Enable Vignette — Turns on the radial vignette, calculated over the visible window (never under the bars).

Enable Grain — Turns on the procedural film grain, limited to the visible area.

Enable Contrast — Turns on the final contrast curve — an S-curve over Rec.709.

Format — Calculates the V/H bar thickness for this aspect ratio. You can adjust the sliders by hand afterward.

V — Thickness of the top/bottom bar (letterbox), in % of frame height.

H — Thickness of the left/right bar (pillarbox), in % of frame width.

X — Shifts the crop window horizontally, as a fraction of frame width (does not change the window size).

Y — Shifts the crop window vertically, as a fraction of frame height (does not change the window size).

Feather — Soft transition between the image and the bar, in % of frame height/width. 0 = hard cut.

Roundness — Rounds the corners of the visible window. 0 = sharp corner; at maximum it becomes an oval/capsule shape, never breaks.

Color — Color of the crop bars.

Opacity — Opacity of the crop bars.

Hover a control to see what it does.

X — Shifts the source image horizontally underneath the crop, as a fraction of frame width. The crop itself doesn’t move.

Y — Shifts the source image vertically underneath the crop, as a fraction of frame height. The crop itself doesn’t move.

Zoom — Zooms into the source image (magnify only), useful when panning alone isn’t enough to recompose the shot.

Hover a control to see what it does.

Optics — Shape and starting point of the falloff, based on the type of optics you want to evoke.

Intensity — Positive darkens (classic vignette); negative brightens — a ‘light leak’/veil effect that lifts the edge shadows far more than the highlights. 0 = no effect.

Softness — Edge hardness: 0 = narrow/hard transition, 1 = wide/soft falloff.

Hover a control to see what it does.

Stock — A fixed recipe of size and texture per negative format — not a continuous scale.

Intensity — How much the grain blends over the image. 0 = invisible, 1 = full Overlay blend.

Size — Multiplier on the base grain size of the chosen stock. 1.0 = that stock’s natural size.

Color — 0 = monochrome grain (recommended, like real film negative), 1 = grain with independent color noise per channel.

Animation — 0 = static grain (no flicker), 1 = a new pattern every frame. In-between values change more slowly.

Hover a control to see what it does.

Intensity — Strength of the S-curve: deeper shadows, more open highlights.

Shadow Lift — Lifts the black floor for a negative/film-like touch instead of pure digital black. Independent of Intensity — raise it gradually.

Protection — Dampens contrast so it doesn’t ‘clip’ certain areas. Midtones: by luminance range. Skin: by hue, isolating real skin tone. Both: combines the two.

Skin Tone — Use the eyedropper to sample a real skin tone from this shot — Skin (hue) recalibrates automatically instead of assuming a generic hue.

Hue Tolerance — How wide the Skin detection opens around the sampled tone. Wider covers real skin variation better; narrower separates from similar colors like wood.

Saturation Range — Same as Hue Tolerance, but for the saturation band — excludes near-neutral grays on one side and very vivid colors on the other.
