Noise

Overlay procedural noise for texture, grit and analog grit.

Noise is the random texture of sensors, tape and film grain. Digital sensors add read and photon noise; analogue media add their own grit. Creatively, noise breaks up banding and softens the plastic feel of clean renders.

Amount and scale should match the resolution of the piece so the grain feels embedded rather than pasted.
