Retrofi is a premium film-emulation system built natively into DaVinci Resolve, designed to bring back the emotive, textured warmth of analog 16 mm and 35 mm film in your digital footage
Core Features
- Film Stock EmulationsIncludes PowerGrades inspired by iconic stocks: Kodak 500T, Kodak 250D, AGFA, Portra 400, and even “expired” film looks. Available in both 16 mm and 35 mm versions, each crafted for accurate skin tones, soft highlight roll-off, and cinematic shadows
- Integrated Grain & TextureRealistic grain is embedded in Resolve’s node graph, with distinct textures tailored to each film format—no overlay required
- Authentic Halation/BloomA dedicated halation engine recreates the subtle glow around bright highlights, mimicking celluloid’s red/orange bloom
- Responsive Tonal CurvesThe color response adapts dynamically based on exposure and lighting conditions, approximating how real film stocks behave
- On‑Set Monitoring LUTsPreview your look in-camera or on set using included monitoring LUTs, ensuring what you see during shooting matches your final grade
- Comprehensive User GuideA beautifully designed PDF walks you through installation, usage, and customization inside Resolve
Why Retrofi Stands Out
- Emotion Over PerfectionIt’s not a mere filter—it’s a philosophy rooted in analog film’s tactile imperfections and character
- Native & EfficientFully built within Resolve—no external plugins, no performance overhead, and no over-engineered node trees
- Designed for FilmmakersIdeal for narrative, documentary, music video, or wedding shoots—Retrofi balances speed, style, and flexibility
Who It’s For
- Creators aiming to add real emotion and filmic soul to digital footage
- Editors and colorists seeking fast, integrated film looks without sacrificing grade quality
- Anyone who finds modern digital imagery too clinical and wants something more evocative
