I’ve lost count of how long lasts the infinite retromania in graphic design. And let’s admit that it will last even longer, taking a brand-new twist every year. Now, as the creative community keeps getting amazed with the vibe of the 70s, 80s, and 90s, we’ve got a free photo effect that would cover all these visual styles. Made precisely for posters, the effect brings delicate grainy distortion typical for old film cameras. It works equally for color and black-and-white photos and creates a realistic retro look.
The versatility of this free poster effect is the key — a single PSD allows creating imagery from three decades. This is possible thanks to 6 color filters, changing the palette, and 3 effect styles: small, medium, and large. Depending on the grit intensity and chosen color, you’ll time-travel with your photos and create flawless themed graphics.
