I don't think there's a thread for vfx so i decided to make one... and share 2 things that you can do.
These can't be used with Windows Movie Maker so don't go asking.
Film Burns

Scroll down and download the film burns from the links.
After you finish downloading, place them in a video track above your video sequence and set the blending mode to "Screen"
Realistic Film Grain
*This tutorial is aimed specifically for After Effects users*

1. Download the picture of film grain above or search a picture of one yourself.
2. Import the picture into After Effects.
3. Drag the picture over your composition.
4. Go to Transform>Position
5. Alt+Click the stopwatch and type in "wiggle(4,50)" (without the " " obviously)
6. Change the blending mode to "Soft Light" (right click on the image, choose Blending Mode and then Soft Light)
7. You're done. If you want harsher grain then go to the Curves tool (Color correction>Curves) and set it to a slight S curve.
