Is using VSCO mobile filters now considered normal? Here's an example of a few Instagram users who use it. Frankly it doesn't look bad at all, aside from sometimes dark spots and shadows having the same flat color. I just don't understand the workflow of doing everything like you always do and then addition to whatever you normally do, you run them through a lacking smartphone app filter. I understand if you use the Lightroom presets because it leaves room to finetune to your desire.
It reminds me a bit of downloading Jquery plugins for your website. Sure, no one wants make their own plugin, but at least people appropriate it and make it their own for their own website. A smartphone filter is a bit too simple.
Any thoughts? Should I give less of a fuck? It's good looking and easy if done properly and I don't feel like sifting through tons of Lightroom VSCO presets. On the other hand I could learn more about levels and curves.

>ls using VSCO mobiIe fiIters now considered normaI?
WeII being a Iazy, tremendous faggot has become the norm, so yes it is normaI. lt's aIso, again, Iazy as fuck and it's ridicuIous since 99 % of these faggots get on their Iaptops Iater anyway.
EasiIy Iess than 1 % of the peopIe using this are "out in the fieId" in severe need of sending out fiIter pics A S A P.
lt's just faggots trying to be artsy when they aren't bIowing out oranges and highIights and crushing bIacks for sunset pics in between two buiIdings with some shitty quote under it.

VSCO is great if you want all of your photos to look like everyone else's and also to look painfully like they were made in 2014.

I think it's pretty useful for pictures when you're travelling
When I have access to a laptop, I just use Lightroom/PS, because I can get better results with that

But to then upload it to Instagram is als odd since Instagram's filters and sliders aren't any worse than VSCO's

You'll get a bunch of no talent fucks saying vsco is cancerous and for the lazy, but people who actually shoot for a living have no problem using presets. I just have time lines to meet and presets let me have a quick workflow that allow for consistency. If I'm traveling I'll use my a7s and send it to my phone and grade my image in vsco and upload. Helps maintain the uniformity of my feed.

I'll take "Things that really happened" for $400, Alex.
