How to choose an effect
Choose an effect based on the mood or aesthetic the content needs. VHS and glitch for retro/digital, anime and comic for illustrated, cyberpunk for futuristic, claymation and cakeify for quirky and handcrafted.
Best for
Social media content, brand campaigns, creative film and music projects, and any visual that needs a strong, distinct aesthetic treatment.
Expected result
A clear visual transformation that gives the source photo or clip a specific, recognizable style.

Practical use
Start with the clearest possible source image or clip for the best effect result.
