WHY FRAME SEQUENCE

Instead of adding another texture or visual effect, these overlays help organize the composition itself.

Use them to:

• direct attention toward a focal point • create cinematic crop structures • establish title-safe areas • frame photography and artwork • build editorial compositions • add subtle viewfinder-style details • create more intentional album, poster and campaign layouts • develop consistent visual systems across a series of designs

Every overlay belongs to the same cohesive visual language while serving a different composition purpose.

EASY TO USE

Choose an overlay, place it above your image or artwork, resize it to fit your composition, recolor it if needed, then add your own typography or additional design elements.

The artwork is completely text-free, so no fonts are required.

SVG and EPS files provide scalable vector artwork. Transparent PNG files can be placed in applications that support PNG graphics.
