$npx mdskill add arjun988/blender-skills/analog-found-footage-horror

Creates analog VHS and found-footage horror aesthetics for Blender shots.

  • Simulates handheld security cam and documentary framing for horror scenes.
  • Depends on Blender compositing nodes for VHS blur and chroma damage.
  • Selects effects based on mundane spaces and implied horror over monsters.
  • Outputs rendered shots with tape damage, tracking lines, and dead channels.

# Analog / Found Footage Horror

Documentary camera. Tape damage. Dead channels. Corporate/educational uncanny.

## Tenets
1. Handheld / locked security cam language
2. Timestamp / tracking UI optional (comp)
3. VHS blur, chroma bad, tracking lines
4. Mundane spaces made wrong
5. Less monster, more implication
