# Frame Effects

Frame effects allow you to customize the visual style of your photos by applying filters, skin-smoothing effects, or background blurring.

{% hint style="info" %}

* **Global Settings:** Any settings applied here will affect all capture frames across every layout in your [preset](https://app.simplebooth.com/presets). 
* **Post-Capture Edits**: You can also enable these effects as an [editing tool](/copy-of-halo-app/experience-designer/post-capture/edit-tools.md) to let guests make their own adjustments.
  {% endhint %}

#### Effect Options

Use these tabs to explore the different ways you can enhance your captures.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Color Filter" %}
Set a default color filter to give your event a specific mood or aesthetic.

* **Selection:** Choose from 19 different color filters.
* **Intensity:** Adjust the filter strength from 0–100% to find the perfect balance.

{% hint style="info" %}
Test filters with your specific event lighting in advance to see which options look best before your event goes live.
{% endhint %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Glam" %}
Apply a beautifying filter designed to smooth skin textures, wrinkles, and blemishes for a polished "red carpet" look.

* **Glam:** Optimized for lighter skin tones.
* **Glam More:** Optimized for darker skin tones.

{% hint style="info" %}
You can set a default style and strength, but we recommend enabling Glam as a [post-capture editing tool](/copy-of-halo-app/experience-designer/post-capture/edit-tools.md) so participants can choose the style that best suits them.
{% endhint %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Background Blur" %}
Focus the attention on your guests by blurring the background of the photo.

* **Manual Blur:** Set a fixed blur intensity that applies the same amount of softening to every photo.
* **Auto Blur:** Uses AI to detect the environment and automatically applies the optimal amount of blur based on the depth of the scene.
  {% endtab %}
  {% endtabs %}
