Monochrome Grain Poster Effect

The vertical PS effect turns crisp images into high-contrast portraits — part analog film, part art-house cinema still. The heavy grain softens edges while amplifying texture, giving every shot the mood. Use it to create editorial posters, campaign visuals, musician promos, social drops, experimental photo essays, zine layouts, or personal branding for photographers. It’s especially striking for portraiture, movement studies, or concept imagery.
