Why we like it

Quick Post FX earns a place in the superhive library for pairing 14 filmic presets with hands-on control over color channels, filters and bloom, all previewed in real time through Blender's compositor.

What is Quick Post Fx?

Quick Post FX is a Blender add-on for color grading rendered or viewport results in Cycles using Blender's real-time compositor. After installing, you find it on the Tools Panel, click the Composite Button to add the required nodes, then pick a color grade preset and edit it.

The add-on includes 14 filmic color grading composition presets built to emulate film stocks, with named looks such as SuperMan Vs BatMan and Harry Potter. Every preset is fully customizable: you can adjust exposure, contrast, saturation, vibrance, brightness and hue, tweak individual color channels, and use color balance to shift the overall temperature warmer or cooler.

Beyond grading, Quick Post FX applies image filters including blur, vignette and lens distortion, plus bloom and glare effects with adjustable intensity, size and shape. It runs through Blender's node-based compositor and gives real-time feedback in the viewport, so adjustments and presets show as you make them.

Frequently asked questions

Does Quick Post FX work in Cycles with Blender's real-time compositor?

Quick Post FX is built to color grade rendered or viewport results in Cycles using Blender's real-time compositor. It runs through Blender's node-based compositor, and clicking the Composite Button adds the required nodes for you. Because it uses the real-time compositor, adjustments and presets appear as real-time feedback in the viewport, so you can see changes as you make them rather than waiting on full renders. The add-on is referenced alongside the Blender 3.5 release.

How do I install and start using Quick Post FX?

Quick Post FX installs as a Blender add-on, after which it appears on the Tools Panel. To begin grading, click the Composite Button to add the required compositor nodes, then choose one of the color grade presets and edit it to your liking. Every preset is fully customizable, so you can refine the look from there. Documentation is listed among the add-on's resources if you want more detail on the workflow.

What color grading presets come with Quick Post FX?

Quick Post FX ships with 14 filmic color grading composition presets designed to emulate the look of film stocks, with named examples including SuperMan Vs BatMan and Harry Potter. Each preset can be applied and then edited, since all of them are fully customizable. Alongside the presets you can adjust exposure, contrast, saturation, vibrance, brightness and hue, control individual color channels, and use color balance to shift the overall temperature warmer or cooler.

Can Quick Post FX add bloom, glare and other effects?

Quick Post FX applies bloom and glare effects, letting you adjust their intensity, size and shape for control over the final look. It also includes image filters such as blur, vignette and lens distortion. These sit alongside the color grading controls, so you can combine graded color with these added effects. Everything runs through Blender's node-based compositor with real-time feedback in the viewport as you work, keeping the grading and effects steps in one place.

Is Quick Post FX free to use?

Quick Post FX is listed as free in this catalog. Pricing and licensing terms can change over time, so check the developer's page for the current details before you rely on any specific arrangement. Once installed, you access it from the Tools Panel and use the Composite Button to add the compositor nodes it needs. A demo video is available if you want to see more before installing.
