MED SAT – Z-log Ludeman_709_Base LUT
MED SAT – Z-log Ludeman_709_Skin LUT
Why do you need these LUTs?
Zlog and other log formats can often times be hard to expose without a proper way of monitoring your image. Zlog and other log formats also have a tendency to look flat or washed out. This is why I created my Zcam LUTs. Not only will they help you get exposure out on the field, they will also help you in post production.
Before I go any further, I should note that I didn’t create these LUTs with the intent to sell them. These are simply the LUTs I’ve personally used and perfected over the years. I should also note that these LUTs are not a”fix all” for your footage. These LUTs simply serve as a base or starting point for your grade. If you want the best results, I suggest grading beyond the simple application of the LUT.
Application:
Each LUT in this pack was created specifically for the Zcam Z-log color profile. My primary tests when creating the LUTs were with my lovely Zcam E2. I designed these LUTs to help me achieve proper exposure while I’m filming and grading while continuing to maintain a pleasing picture. Each LUT included has varying degrees of saturation and color. I find myself using MED most often.
Included in this folder are the following LUTs:
LOW SAT – Z-log Ludeman_709_Base LUT
MED SAT – Z-log Ludeman_709_Base LUT
HIGH SAT – Z-log Ludeman_709_Base LUT
LOW SAT – Z-log Ludeman_709_Skin LUT
MED SAT – Z-log Ludeman_709_Skin LUT
HIGH SAT – Z-log Ludeman_709_Skin LUT
Notes & Tips:
-These LUTs work best when you (ETTR) expose to the right with your histogram.
– Every camera is different. With that said, you may have to further adjust your color after you’ve applied the LUT. In most cases, a simple temp/tint adjustment will suffice.
– For the best results, be sure your camera is properly white balanced while filming.
