Alexa Log-C on FCP – 3D LUTs
On one of the FCP threads I started it’s become apparent that ICC profiles can be used by FCP to control the look of clips.
ICC profiles can be applied to clips via Effects>Video Filters>Quicktime>Colorsync.
They can also be ‘burnt’ into clips in the “export>using quicktime conversion” window, or from within Quicktime Player 7, under Export>Video>filter>Adjustments>Colorsync.
So, with Light Illusion’s SpaceMan ICC we can accurately covert 3D LUTs into ICC profiles, which means Alexa Log-C footage can be ‘look’ managed via 3D LUTs in the form of ICC profiles.
What I need is a couple of ‘testers’ working with Alexa Log-C footage to test the workflow.
This will not be a free workflow as converting 3DLUTs into ICC profiles is not a trivial process, and SpaceMan ICC is a commercial product, but it could produce a real colour management workflow as any 3D LUT can be converted into an ICC profile, making FCP LUT capable without the need for the ‘Color’ module.
Are FCP users interested in this?
