What Are LUTs?

LUTs, short for Lookup Tables, are pre-defined mathematical formulas that adjust the colors and contrast in your videos or images. These digital tools are like secret ingredients that professional filmmakers and photographers use to transform the overall visual aesthetic of their work. LUTs enable you to change the mood and tone of your footage quickly and efficiently, making them an essential part of the post-production process

How Do LUTs Work?

LUTs work by mapping the existing colors in your footage to new, desired colors. They function as a guide, instructing your editing software on how to adjust the color, contrast, and brightness to achieve the look you want. In other words, LUTs are like filters that bring out the hidden potential in your video, making it appear more cinematic, vibrant, or any other style you desire

Integrating LUTs into the Grading Process

1. Importing LUTs: After you've downloaded our high-quality LUTs, you can easily import them into your favorite video editing software, such as Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or others. This process varies depending on your software, but it typically involves a simple drag-and-drop action.
2. Applying LUTs: Once the LUT is imported, you can apply it to your video clips. Each LUT is designed to create a specific look or mood. For example, you might choose a LUT that gives your video a warm, cinematic feel, or another that imparts a moody, vintage atmosphere.
3. Fine-Tuning: While LUTs are incredibly powerful, they're not one-size-fits-all. You can further fine-tune the effect by adjusting parameters like intensity, contrast, and saturation to match your specific creative vision.
4. Seeing the Magic Happen: Watch as your footage is transformed before your eyes. The LUT will harmonize the colors and enhance the overall appeal of your video, giving it that "MABO Films" look you've been yearning for.
