| Curious question to anyone who has done a lot of CDL (Color Descision List) work. I'm use to using a generic Cineon Log to Lin for viewing and then doing a reverse process with Cineon Lin to Log for final output. Not once have I ever gotten a proper LUT on a project in the 13+ years I've been doing this work. Sad, very sad. Anyways, someone finally has some CDL values (not an actual LUT file mind you) and I can easily, manually, input the values into Colorista - Free, but how would I do a reverse of this properly? I'm assuming this CDL is essentially my "viewing" LUT and I would need it's opposite to reverse it all back with VFX applied. Did that make sense? Thanks for any insight. What the editor exported for me, is an EDL that contained these lines as well as other clip data. *ASC_SOP (1.0000 1.0000 1.0000)(0.0000 0.0000 0.0000)(1.0000 1.0000 1.0000) *ASC_SAT 1 The ASC_SOP and ASC_SAT data exists, even though they are default neutral values. I'm hopeful that he will be able to get the actual CDL values that he is seeing in AVID. -- David Torno Visual Effects Artist and Supervisor http://www.ghosttownmedia.com david@ghosttownmedia.com O: 213.739.2290 C: 818.391.6060 ------------------------------------------------ http://www.sydefxink.com (main portfolio) http://aeioweyou.blogspot.com (vfx tutorials and AE scripts blog) http://mactex.blogspot.com (free textures blog) |
