Vibe Blaster 800 — Fuji film simulation recipe
These are the vibes you’ve been looking for! This is a Fujifilm film simulation recipe that I used the entire summer almost exclusively. I wanted a nostalgic look-and-feel with plenty of grain, smooth tones and of course them vibes. The washed out shadows, muted tones and slightly wonky color balance gives this recipe a casual snapshotty film look straight out of camera. I found Vibe Blaster 800 to work nicely while traveling, road tripping and enjoying nice and bright summer days. I even tried it on couple of occasions for portraits and I was extremely happy with the results. If I didn’t know any better, I would easily mistake these as actual film. The sample images are all done in-camera without any editing (unless otherwise mentioned).
