Six creative LUTs developed with cinematographer Oren Soffer (The Creator, Fixation, and the upcoming Onslaught).
Inspired by Oren's own narrative and commercial work and shaped together into a set of looks you can drop straight into your project. Each LUT works across a variety of camera log profiles, so you can match whichever camera you're shooting on. Use them as a finished look or as a starting point for a deeper grade.

The LUTs
Mountain.
The versatile baseline. Adds density through contrast and saturation without getting harsh. The all-purpose option for both commercial and narrative work.
"Mountain" in action on a shot from a fashion film, as well as "Helen and Jon" from Arri Example Footage Library.
Crypt
Moody, desaturated, horror-leaning with a soft shadow toe and slightly lifted blacks. Best for narrative, especially darker material.
"Crypt" in action on a shot from a dark thriller, as well as "Helen and Jon" from Arri Example Footage Library.
Beach
Nostalgic, softer contrast with warm highlights and cooler shadows. For when you want warmth and romance with a filmic low end.
Ocean
Lifted blacks with a cooler shadow character and pronounced teal/orange separation. Especially cool in the shadows. For something more graphic and stylized, but still cinematic.
"Beach" in action on a shot from a fashion spot, as well as "Helen and Jon" from Arri Example Footage Library.
Moon
Cool, silvery, restrained. A bleach bypass adjacent, silver retention impression, especially in blue heavy environments.
"Moon" in action on a shot from a commercial, as well as "Helen and Jon" from Arri Example Footage Library.
Jungle
Mood forward and stylized with a green/yellow cast. Great for darker tungsten lit scenes or a tense, biased color world.
