Film and cinematic Lightroom presets

A film look is not a layer dropped over a digital file. It is a set of decisions the stock made on the photographer's behalf: where the shadows stop being black, how far the highlights roll before they let go, which colours drift as the exposure climbs. These packs make those decisions again, on a file that never made them.

The group covers the processes one at a time. Colour negative holds skin and lifts the bottom of the curve. Slide goes the other way, dense and saturated, with a short shoulder that clips if you push it. Cross process crosses the casts so shadows and highlights disagree on purpose. Bleach bypass strips the colour and hardens the contrast toward silver. Faded print and old stock put the dye layers out of balance the way light and time do. Instant and snapshot keep the flash and the cheap lens instead of correcting them out.

Last Light by Duskgrade is fifteen looks for the hour after sunset, indoors and out. Film Preset by Crossbath is eighteen built on a single cross-processed signal. Faded Print and Old Stock by Expiredroll is thirty-six across two ideas: a print that has sat in the light, and a roll that expired before it was loaded. Film Archive by Stockshelf runs to a hundred and forty-four across eight processes, and Film and Darkroom by Filmvault adds the darkroom beside them, contact print through platinum, selenium and the plate room.

Take a single pack when one process is the look you are after. Take a library when you want to move between them on the same set of frames.
