Retro & Lo-Fi Canvas. Common Questions

What photo style works best for retro lo-fi?

Photos with natural lighting, warm tones, or high-contrast black-and-white work best. Candid shots, film photography scans, or any image that already has a nostalgic feel will be enhanced by the VHS grain and warm tint.

Can I use this for a lo-fi hip hop release?

Absolutely. This preset was designed with lo-fi hip hop, bedroom pop, and indie folk in mind. The warm grain and slow drift perfectly match the chill, nostalgic energy of those genres.

Does the VHS glitch line appear in the export?

Yes. The tracking glitch line is baked into the exported MP4, adding authentic VHS imperfection to the final canvas.
