This LoRA captures the expressive imperfections of analog photography, the kind that gives film its soul. It recreates the beauty of motion blur, out-of-focus subjects caused by lens quirks, and deliberate camera shake to evoke a dreamy, cinematic mood. Every frame feels alive, flawed in the most artistic way, like a fleeting moment caught just before it slips away.

35mm Film Blur is designed to be paired with either my '35mm Analog Film' or '35mm Warm Analog Film' for best results. While it functions well on its own, it shines brightest when layered with the analog series; enhancing their tones, deepening the cinematic realism, and giving your generations a visceral, lived-in texture. Think of this LoRA as a creative amplifier. A tool that elevates your base analog LoRA into a fuller, more emotional experience. Prompt adherence also tends to improve when used in combination.

For optimal results, include prompt keywords such as "motion blur," "camera shake," "out of focus," "blurred subject," "blurred subject, with a sharply focused backdrop," "captured with a handheld analog camera," or "dynamic blur" to guide the model. These terms help activate the LoRA’s visual behavior and add more energy and drama to the frame.

Use this LoRA to tell stories in motion. Stories that blur, breathe, and burn like real film.
