8mm Overlay Effect for After Effects
Create an authentic vintage film vibe with 8mm Overlay Effect for After Effects 2024 and above. This drag-and-drop overlay is designed to quickly transform modern footage into an old-school 8mm film look with grain, dust, scratches, subtle flicker, and classic frame character — without complicated setups and no plugins required. It’s a practical solution for editors who need a retro archival style in seconds.
The effect is fully editable via Essential Properties, allowing precise control over aging intensity, texture visibility, and tonal character. You can switch between black & white, color, or duotone looks, add or reduce film texture, and adjust how clean or distressed the final image feels. The overlay automatically adapts to any horizontal resolution, including 4K and Full HD.
