making digital look like film?

fredcastle

hey,

do any of you ever use filters or add grain to make digitl photos look more like film?

any tips or ideas?

I have seen many filters for getting the color to resemble specific film stocks. I have not seen any for grain but I bet they exist. It’s also probably true that “grain” is stock specific and that you need quite a big file to make the grain feel “natural”. What’s your context?

You guys are talking about Exposure and Exposure 2 from Alien Skin Software . . . http://www.alienskin.com
