Dehancer accurately emulates film in all of its analog features. Achieve cinematic look with famous colour and BW films like  Kodak Vision 3, Kodak Portra 400, Cinestill 800, Ilford HP5 Plus, Kodak Eastman 5222, and even  Kodachrome 64.

Try instant, vintage and exotic processes – Fujifilm Instax, Polaroid, Prokudin-Gorskiy, Ambrotype, ORWO.

Each film is captured in 3 different exposures. The Push/Pull feature gives you countless variations in between.

Printing is the final stage of analogue cinema production.
Dehancer offers 2 motion picture print films, each has its character which makes it a versatile creative tool:

Colour negative films are optically printed on Kodak Endura Glossy paper in natural colours. BW negatives are reproduced on  Slavich Bromportrait paper with a noble warm tone.

Dehancer Film Grain stands out from the crowd. It is not just scanned and overlaid. Our unique algorithm rebuilds an image with little granules, based on colour and brightness details.

You can recreate any grain with built-in tool profiles for 8, 16, 35 and 65mm film , or using the custom settings.

This film emulsion effect is visible as the red-orange halo around the light sources, highlights and contrasting edges. Also halation makes the skin tone more vivid and attractive.

There are 8 halation profiles with custom adjustments to handle most creative needs.

Soft glow or mist around bright objects refines a vintage look, traditionally achieved with optical filters, exotic lenses and small format film. Dehancer accurately replicates the real physics of light with versatile profiles for 8, 16, 35 and 65 mm film formats and custom settings.

Film Breath effect is an accidental change in exposure, contrast and colour from frame to frame. It greatly affects the experience in terms of ‘analogue feeling’.

The most characteristic ‘emulsion breath’ is represented by the profiles for the four major film formats. The smaller the format, the more obvious the changes from frame to frame.

Gate Weave stands for mechanical swinging of a film strip while it is being pulled through a film gate in a camera, projector or video coding device. It is often simulated intentionally to ‘breathe life’ into a digital cinema.

In Dehancer Gate Weave is represented with a set of tool profiles for typical film formats.

The sense of real media is enhanced by the lifelike film artefacts. Film Damage consists of 3 components – Dust, Hair and Scratches. 

Tool Profiles help recreating the most characteristic defects for different film formats.

Overscan is the extra image area on film, where the perforation, film gate, frame spaces, and nearby frames appear. These elements are handcrafted using real film scans and can be controlled independently in all aspects.

Overscan includes film gates and perforations for most popular 8, 16, 35 and 65 mm film formats.

Make your own development recipe depending on the source material, shooting conditions and creative tasks! Film Developer is handy with specific shots and cameras, which you want to standardise and make easier to process. Colour Boost and Contrast Boost helps to get more punch and definition instantly.

Emulate the film-like compressed highlights and get more headroom for manipulation.

Although this tool doesn’t restore clipped areas, it greatly helps to protect and emphasise the highlights texture in the analogue way.

The Subtractive CMY Color Head works like the colour correction filters used in photo enlargers and RGB printer lights. Dehancer uses the real-life values of the filters.

Print Toning allows you to adjust the colour temperature separately in the shadows, the midtones, and the highlights.

Vignetting is usually considered a lens flaw, but it is a great tool to add depth and set the accents in the frame. In Dehancer vignette applies the film-like exposure correction and looks organic.

The set of tool profiles designed to recreate the typical look of different film formats is available for Film Grain, Halation, Bloom, Film Damage, Film Breath and Gate Weave tools.

Dehancer supports dozens of popular video cameras, drones and even mobile formats like  Filmic Pro Log and Apple ProRes Log.

All camera profiles are custom made to meet our high aesthetic and technical standards. Also, you may interpret the source with your familiar tools before Dehancer, we just need a  normal contrast Rec.709.

Dehancer features a broad set of color pipelines and gamma standards, exclusive to Dehancer Pro OFX.

ACES (Academy Color Encoding System) is supported as the production pipeline and also provides smoother colour and tone.

DaVinci WG/Intermediate (DaVinci YRGB Color Managed) makes full use of the wide gamut source and provides the headroom for out of gamut colours such as saturated highlights, neon tubes etc.

Cineon Film Log support allows using Dehancer for colour grading of the film scans in Cineon gamma and for specific film-like workflows with Cineon timeline.

Sometimes it is convenient to export a grading look as a LUT file for on-stage or realtime grading. LUT incorporates all the colour and contrast attributes applied to the clip within Dehancer plugin.

LUT Generator has two quality options: Small (17x17x17) and Normal (33x33x33).

False Colors shows brightness levels with different colors, making it easier to check the exposure. It provides foolproof clipping and exposure monitoring. This tool is useful for adjusting the skin tone exposure and for clip matching.

Clipping Indication clearly visualises the minimum exposure in shadows and maximum exposure in highlights.

Defringe helps to eliminate the chromatic aberrations in the source image, which may interfere with some of the Dehancer effects, such as Halation and Bloom.
