For decades, filmmakers have tried to recapture the magic of real film grain. But most plugins fall short relying on flat mid-grey scans, monochrome overlays, and resolution hacks.
Grainlab changes everything!
It’s the only plugin built on a state-of-the-art Boolean model of physical reality, accelerated for real-time 4K performance, and designed for true cinematic authenticity.
Grain changes with light. Shadows, mids, and highlights each carry unique structure. Grainlab replicates this behavior perfectly.
Particle Size Control
Choose your emulated film stock. From gritty 8mm to pristine 65mm, adjust grain by actual silver halide crystal size.
Color-Rich Grain
Unlike monochrome overlays, GrainLab emulates grain through three color emulsions. The result: texture with true color depth.
Negative + Print Grain Blending
The real cinematic texture emerges when negative and print grain interact. Grainlab lets you blend or separate them for endless creative possibilities.
Sub-Pixel Grain Generation
Go beyond scanner resolution. Oversampling generates particles smaller than a pixel for hyper-realistic texture.
Spatial Frequency Accurate
Realism comes from multiple frequencies. GrainLab recreates grain at every level, adding natural depth and richness.
Boolean Model of Film Reality
Built on the best film science model of the last 20 years—now optimized for real-time work.
Resolution Independence
No HD-to-4K scaling. GrainLab generates fresh grain for your project’s native resolution.
Embedded, Not Overlaid
Grain becomes part of the image. Not something “sitting on top.”
JPLog2 with 18 Stops
Massive latitude ensures your grading retains full detail.
Flicker & Weaver Simulation
Derived from hours of dedicated film scans for total authenticity.
The Best Film Grain at the Best Price
Perpetual License $200 $490
Annual License $100 $249
Some plugins cost thousands and still don’t match Grainlab’s accuracy, flexibility, and realism.
I am the founder and the head of technical department at our indie film production company. The love to create a film look on digital footage has led me to either buy or test trials of a lot of software, plug-ins, DCTLs, LUTs or even Color checker matching or profile generating tools. I bought LookDesigner… Read more “It has been a wonderful experience”
