Free creative tools. A little less ordinary.

Turn an image or a short video into something with character. Six effects from the Melt engine, with local processing and controls you can actually understand.

ASCII

Turn photographs into grids of characters, from fine typographic detail to bold blocks of text.

Dither

Reduce images to a black-and-white or source-color palette with ordered pixel patterns.

Halftone

Give photography and footage a dotted, print-inspired surface with an adjustable dot size.

Cyanotype

Create a blue photographic-print treatment with ink, paper, exposure and texture controls.

CRT

Add scanlines, display masks, curvature and glow for a retro screen treatment.

Posterize

Simplify continuous tones into fewer color levels for graphic, poster-like artwork.
