Not sure what kind of support AME has for ARRIRAW files. You might be better off with Resolve Lite (up to UHD) or ARRI's own ARC - ARRI Raw Converter. You want to end up with a LogC image at the correct white balance and ISO -- extracted from the metadata or can be corrected in either of those tools.

LUTs are built for specific parameters, I wouldn't expect just any LUT to work on something it wasn't built for. You could build a "more correct" LUT on ARRI's website, if you know the parameters on how it was created and what you need to output. But saying that, if this is just for viewing your composite and not baked in... eh... you might be fine.

I'm trying to get my color settings correct and am somewhat confused.
Here is is my setup:
32Bit Ae project
sRGB color space
linearize working space enabled

I exported the ARRIRAW sequence with AME to a DPX sequence. Import into AE and it says it's in linear space in interpret footage.

On the layer, I'm adding a LUT I got from the ARRI website that we use a lot for S-Log clips. The file still looks washed out. But if I put a .4545(reverse of 2.2) gamma with a levels effect, it looks like what we saw on set.

Does that sound right? Or am I missing or messing something up? I don't normally work with DPX files.
