M4 Modern Classic | Cinematic Cool Vintage & Retro Indie Preset for Lightroom & Mobile

$9.95

M4 Preset: Your daily essential for a cool-toned, moody, and cinematically vintage film look.

The M4 is the rebel of the M-series. While its siblings lean into warm ambers, M4 introduces a sophisticated cool-neutral palette with subtle magenta undertones. It captures the aesthetic of an indie film shot on a crisp morning—think moody skylines, late-night diners, and effortless street style. We’ve reimagined this iconic aesthetic for The Editing Studio to deliver a professional finish that trades "sunny nostalgia" for "cinematic character." It’s the definitive choice for an editorial feed that feels retro, cool, and undeniably authentic.

The Preset Explained:

M4: The cool-vintage standard; celebrated for its balanced skin tones, moody blue-grey shadows, and a professional "cinematic-matte" finish that adds a layer of indie-film mystery to every shot.
