How to apply the Technicolor Cinestyle LUT in DaVinci Resolve Lite…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBuq1Rvohc4
If you’re shooting with the Technicolor Cinestyle LUT on your HDSLR and want to apply the correct S-curve to your grade in DaVinci Resolve, David Griffiths over at thedesktopvideoguy.com has done all the hard work for you by creating a LUT file for the Technicolor Cinestyle that will work in DaVinci Resolve Lite…
Download it here, but be sure to check out David’s post for a full, step-by-step tutorial on how to install and make the most of it over on his site.
UPDATE – DOWNLOAD NEARLY 100 FREE FILM LUTS
If you’re looking for free Film Emulation, Colour Grading and preset look LUTS then head over to this post –> Free Film LUTS for Editors, Colorists and DITs to download nearly 100 free LUTS!
The post also covers what a LUT actually is, how it works, tutorials for using them, organising them and even making your own.
For Mavericks users – 10.9 – the Cinestyle folder is now in the home folder (at least for me it was) and it can be found here: ~/Library/Containers/com.blackmagic-design.DaVinciResolveLite/Data/Library/Application Support/LUT/
If you have the full version knock off the ‘Lite’.
Thanks for the update Jon and taking the time to share it!
Edit: My comment is for DaVinci Resolve 9 Lite
Sounds like people are having the same problem I did… if you CANNOT FIND THE APPLICATION SUPPORT FOLDER – do the following:
Click the gear icon in the bottom left.
In the window the pops up, click on Look Up Tables.
Click the button that says Open LUT Folder.
Tada!
Thanks for the tip nick!
Hi Dennys
I’m on snow leopard and not lion but maybe the following is what is happening?
If you go through
Mac HD/Library/Application support/Blackmagic Design/
you’ll find the folders.
But if you go
User/Library/Application Support/
the BMD folder isn’t there.
Is that the case on Lion?
Jonny and David,
I am using Mac OS Lion and I am unable to find the blackmagic folders. Is there a different way to address this on Lion? Many Thanks!
/Library/Application Support/Blackmagic Design/DaVinci Resolve/LUT/CineSpace on your Mac’s system disk
