texture, finally playing by your rules
The next dimension of look creation, in your favorite grading software

Diaphanie is a limitless textural tool integrated into your favorite grading software as an OpenFX plugin. Going beyond film emulation, the interface breaks down the texture of an image into a series of fine-tuned parametric tools.

Developed for the high standards of professional cinematography, our multi-resolution compatibility and transparent color-managed workflows, allow you to shape your vision with confidence, across formats and delivery specifications.

Shape your texture and make it an essential part of your look creation.
Powerful

A bold textural look, refinable shot by shot.

Simple

Decide how complex to make it thanks to our adjustable Presets.

Beautiful

From established film textures to your own original creations.

Reshape the volume of your image

Explore your texture like never before, using our powerful Spatial Equalizer. By controlling specific regions of your image, based on spatial frequency, you can reshape the look and feel of your camera/optics combination.

Refine details, adjust perceived sharpness and sculpt your image.

The advantages of a highly adjustable procedural grain

Diaphanie’s algorithms replicate the essence of organic film grain by reproducing its randomness.

Unlike layering in texture from scanned film stocks, our procedural approach offers complex and numerous interactions with the image, resulting in a much richer integration.

The grain’s shape, size and plasticity can all be adjusted, opening up different possibilities. Go from finer to sharper, or jagged to thicker and more colorful.

Because it is generated live, Diaphanie does not undergo compression that alters its appearance. Playback performance is therefore much better.

Guess who's who

Feel like you have color scientists by your side
Halation and diffusion, all in one place

In Diaphanie you can emulate any halation and diffusion effect with ease. These photometric phenomena are a combination of flare, halo, and loss of definition.

We’ve put together all of your favorite optical filters. These are also fully parametric, so you can adjust, enhance and blend shot by shot, or across your whole timeline.

Diffusion
Flare vs Halo
The behavior of optical diffusion filters can be described and reproduced with objective parameters.
The power of adjustable Presets

Presets are at the heart of Diaphanie, guaranteeing modularity and continuity.

Create highly complex textural renderings. Export your parametric values at any point and tailor your own personal Presets library. Load, edit and build from your experience project after project.

Diaphanie comes with our robust built in Presets, designed to cover a variety of textural identities. Use them directly or as a base for efficient, personalised look development.

You can even load Presets independently within each module. For example, combine 35mm modelling and halation with a super 16 grain emulation.

Presets
Digital Haze
Start with the adjustable textures available in your Presets library.
A true companion for demanding filmmakers. From prep, on set and through post, rest assured Diaphanie will maintain your artistic vision.

We are a team of Cinematographers and DITs working in France and internationally. In our experience, we were looking for a filmmaker-friendly and industry-proof textural solution.

Teaming up with Poly Son, a major French post facility, we’ve developed tools that work in a collaborative, non-destructive manner across all stages of the pipeline.

Features

Look Presets

Decide where to start from: load a Preset from your library or start from scratch.

You can use an embedded Preset, your own, or one from another Diaphanie user.

Color Management

Work natively in ACES, or choose another working colorspace.

Resolution Factor

Accurately scale textural components to match your project’s working and output resolutions.

Spatial Equalizer

Shape the volume of your image based on its spatial frequencies.

You can call your favorite transformation Preset within the module.

Halation

Create a halo effect, adjust its size, intensity, color or brightness.

Or load a filmic halation from a Preset.

Diffusion

Optical diffusion can be emulated with these curated settings.

Load a creative Preset, or a glass filter emulation, from HBM to Radian Soft. Tweak everything to taste.

 

Grain

Our mathematical model generates grain on the fly for each image. You’ll find extensive adjustment options and excellent performance, even at high resolutions.

Vary the density and scale of your grain based on exposure area and level of detail. Color it to taste.

Start with our embeded film stock emulations or dive into the settings to shape a unique texture.
