Crate’s Final Grain brings professional-grade, photorealistic grain to your digital footage with a single click.
Whether you are looking for the pristine clarity of IMAX 70mm, the iconic grit of 16mm Pushed, or the timeless colors of Kodak Vision3 and Fuji Eterna, our library of expertly crafted presets gives you an instant cinematic foundation.
Crate's Final Grain includes a robust engine for generating procedural Specks and Hair.
Unlike generic textures, these elements are fully customizable. Adjust the clumping, grouping, and diffraction of dust particles, or tweak the length, thickness, and amount of thin swirls of hair to match the age and condition of your "film stock."
From a clean modern scan to a forgotten attic reel, you have total control over the grime.
By pumping up the dirt, specks and hair, and increasing Time Stepping to 7-15, you can create a low-framerate textured overlay suitable for explainer videos and documentaries.

Crate’s Final Grain is GPU-accelerated, allowing you to work in real-time without sacrificing visual fidelity.
Toggle on High Quality mode for sub-pixel accuracy during your final export, or keep it lean while you edit.
We’ve optimized the algorithm to ensure that adding complex texture won't bring your timeline to a crawl.
Fast doesn't mean bad. We've worked to ensure Crates Final Grain is not only the best looking grain, but still maintains near realtime performance.
Comparing to the built-in Grain effect in After Effects yeilds 5x performance.


While Final Grain is a powerhouse in After Effects, it is also fully optimized as a Native Premiere Pro Plugin.
