Introduction

Film grain is one of the techniques we use to make product renders more believable. Product renders are usually too perfect. Adding film grain helps to break the colors slightly and make renders more believable.

In the demo video above, we are using 100% grain to show the effect. In most cases, grain should be applied 30 to 70% strength.

This package includes two colored film grains in 4k and HD resolutions (four in total). The color in the grain is an artistic choice to slightly break the perfect colors. You can make black and white grain by applying a black and white filter.
