Distressed Scanner Error Photo Effect

The effect drags the photo through a broken flatbed, with scan lines, a sliced seam, and heavy grain pulling the image toward harsh black-and-white. The picture splits along a mid-frame glitch, as if the scanner jammed halfway and kept going. A Smart Object takes your shot, and dust specks, fine scratches, and photocopy grit settle across it.

Usage: underground posters, mixtape covers, zine art, streetwear graphics, horror and noir editorial, gig flyers, photobook layouts, and experimental branding.
