Abstract

Technologies for modifying a digital image to take on the appearance of an antique image. Such modifying is typically based on generating and rendering various effects that are blended with the input image, such as color transformation, simulating film grain, dust, fibers, tears, and vintage borders. Such effects may be rendered to various layers that are overlaid on a color transformed image resulting in what appears to be an antique image.
