Featured tools

Quick previews of our most popular tools.

Swirl

Creates a swirl effect at a point you choose in your image. Control the magnitude of the effect with an angle given in radians and the radius of the effect.

CRT Monitor Filter

Apply an authentic retro CRT screen effect to any image with adjustable scanlines, RGB color separation, screen curvature, vignette, noise, saturation, contrast, and glow. This BrushCue CRT tool recreates the look of vintage televisions, arcade monitors, VHS displays, and old computer screens while keeping the effect fully customizable for subtle analog texture or intense retro distortion.

Pixelate

This tool groups nearby pixels into square blocks to reduce detail. Smaller blocks retain more detail, while larger blocks create a stronger, mosaic-like effect, allowing control over how much the image is simplified.

Color Reducer

Reduce the number of colors in an image while preserving visual quality. Useful for creating stylized images, optimizing for web, or preparing assets for limited-color displays.

Negative Filter

With this tool, you can invert the colors of your image to produce an effect that makes your image look like a photo negative.

Glitch Filter Animation

Transform any still image into a dynamic, TikTok-inspired glitch animation video using BrushCue. This ready-made template applies cinematic RGB color splitting, chromatic aberration, red and cyan ghost offsets, and reactive horizontal jitter — all driven by a smooth, time-based animation engine. Perfect for social media content creators, digital artists, and designers looking to add eye-catching glitch effects to photos in seconds.
