Moving film grain to lay over your footage for a shot-on-film look. A ready-made backgrounds animation: change the content, pick the style and motion, then export a video for TikTok, Reels, Shorts or YouTube.

Put it on a gradient, a color, your own image or a transparent background. With the example text it plays for about 6 seconds; longer text gets more time.

Good for: film grain, grain overlay, film look, texture.
