great tutorial….. i have all the expensive plugins but this is easier less rendering and will be useful not only for film look stuff but the technigues will go much further. Thanks

But it doesn’t supply you with the key component to a true film look, which is converting 60i video to 24p, which is where the plugins come in…

It’s more the motion than the look, eh Graeme? 😉

Or better yet, 12 FPS for that REALLY old-school look!
I have to agree though that 60i with old film damage looks really weird. It needs progressive spatial reduction to make it feel right.
