Italian Dream: A Fujifilm Film Simulation Recipe Worth Rediscovering

A few months ago, I shared a major Fujifilm colors image roundup that included several film simulation recipes. Among them was a particularly beautiful one called “Italian Dream,” created by Film Simulation Group member Dean (Instagram).
It’s such a lovely recipe that I feel it got a bit lost within the larger roundup. For that reason, I wanted to give it the attention it deserves by dedicating a standalone article to it.
And it seems the timing is right: the recipe is now starting to gain traction, with fellow Fujifilm X shooters already using it for their own images—like Gamey, who shared some great examples.
I know most of us are currently deep in winter mode. Still, there’s something refreshing about already thinking of summer—and imagining how this film simulation recipe could shine during brighter, warmer days ☀️
