№ 93 · CINEMATIC
Make any photo look cinematic with a film color grade
№ The prompt
Take any scene — a street, a landscape, an empty room — and push its color and light until the whole frame feels like a still pulled from a movie. Drift the deep tones toward moody teal, give the bright areas a warmer glow, and deepen contrast across the image; if you have a specific film in mind, steer the palette that way. Move only color and light, never the layout, objects, or who is in the shot. Aim for a graded photograph rather than a heavy stylized preset.
№ How to use it
Input
Any scene-led photo — landscape, street, or interior — ideally flat or evenly lit so the grade has room to work. Name a film or movie look if you have one in mind.
Preserve
The scene's layout, objects, and anyone present — the grade moves color and light across the whole frame, nothing else.
Avoid
Crushing the blacks, blowing out the highlights, recoloring objects into something they are not, or stacking on fake grain and dust.
