1/22/2024 0 Comments Luts for fcp![]() ![]() mLUT creates its own category in the Effects Browser. Installation was straight-forward and took just a minute or two. Running minstaller requires an Internet connection, as the app connects with the MotionVFX server to get the latest version of whatever you are installing. In other words, it’s a very typical installation. This allows you to install any MotionVFX template, LUT or other utility.Īfter downloading the file, installation requires dragging minstaller into the Application folder. The easiest and most efficient way to install mLUT is use the desktop app minstaller from MotionVFX. In all cases, you don’t waste any time rendering the file. What makes LUTs so attractive is that the changes are instantaneous and don’t require any rendering. In real-life, both colors and gray-scale values can be changed by a LUT. NOTE: In this example, I’m changing colors but not changing gray-scale values. What changes is how the original color values are interpreted (“remapped”) to new color and gray-scale values. In both cases, the source image is not changed. (Um, yeah, these are some pretty ugly colors.) In the bottom image, the colors trend toward pink/yellow. In the top case, the colors tend toward brown. In this image, I’m showing the results from taking the same image and applying two different LUTs. A LUT takes the numbers from the source image and remaps them to new colors or grayscale values to change the look of your image. Every source image is stored as a series of numbers, where each number represents a pixel. As well, MotionVFX sells LUT “plug-in packs” providing a variety of image styles by category such as weddings, blockbusters or film styles.Ī LUT, which is short for Look- Up Table, is a conversion matrix. This utility is free and available from the MotionVFX website. While each NLE has its own internal method of changing LUTs, what I like about mLUT is that, in Final Cut Pro X – and perhaps other apps – it allows you to organize and preview your LUTs, so that you can both simplify and speed the process of changing your look. While the feature set varies by NLE, the plug-in is accessed from with the NLE and allows to you organize, preview, apply and change LUTs for video clips. ![]() While this is not a big deal for either standard definition or most high-definition video, this is an ESSENTIAL task when working with RAW, log, or HDR footage. mLUT allows you to manage the LUT (Look-Up Table) applied to a video clip. MLUT is a free plugin created by MotionVFX for every major NLE on both Mac and Windows. NOTE: mLUT runs on Mac and Windows and supports Adobe Photoshop, Premiere Pro CC, After Effects CC, Apple Final Cut Pro X, Apple Motion, DaVinci Resolve and Avid Media Composer. As I was researching my HDR webinar for Final Cut Pro X, I came across mLUT – a free plug-in/utility that simplifies a key task when working with RAW or log files: changing the LUT to convert a video file from what the camera recorded into something more pleasing to the eye. ![]()
