How to ‘dehance’ your image using film texture and artifacts

Dehancer is an all-in-one software suite that offers film print emulation. Simulate the aesthetic of vintage film stocks and create your own unique effects with this plug-in for DaVinci Resolve. In Part 1 of our Dehancer Pro v7 review, we looked at its core tools, including:

  • Film Developer
  • Film Compression
  • Color Head sections

Part 2 explores and breaks down the workflow and controls for its remaining settings :

  • Film Grain
  • Halation
  • Bloom
  • Film Damage

While Dehancer Pro’s myriad film profiles are its star feature, its additional tools give users the power to create truly convincing and authentic film looks.  From the cleanest 65mm print looks with fine grain and elegant halation to the grungiest 8mm emulation with hair, dirt, and gate weave, you can create them all with Dehancer Pro.
