The Screen Flicker Photo Effect will provide instant nostalgia and warmth to your project by adding just the right touch of retro flicker. This amazing photo effect from Pixelbuddha indicates—yet again—that this fantastic studio has their hand directly on the pulse of the zeitgeist. Pixelbuddha describe the feeling: “Curling up in front of a hissing tube TV with a pack of crunchy snacks, a glass of soda on the nearest table, and pleasant anticipation of a favorite cartoon about to start! No matter how much the world’s technology is rushing toward hyperrealistic video quality, the heart starts beating faster when watching the old shows with static noise and wavy flickering.” So how does Pixelbuddha nail it with The Screen Flicker Photo Effect?
Pixelbuddha nails it by noticing that old TV transmission problems—warping waves, broken lines, and crashing pixels—created coziness, warmth, and comfort not unlike the sedative magic of staring at a flickering bonfire. Recreating that with a photo effect is smart: products, images, and brands are trying to radiate warmth and nostalgia like never before. The increasingly digitized nature of communications and the associated isolation, in addition to world events that reenforce it, leads people to things that are familiar, reassuring, and safe. This remarkable photo effect hits the bullseye in those respects. “Rewind reality to the most cozy moments of your childhood with a simple-to-use Photoshop asset!” says Pixelbuddha, and when you do, your project will give people exactly the warmth and reassurance they are looking for now—in their products, brands, entertainment, and lives.
