Color Grading Central LUTs
What it is
Color Grading Central LUTs offers 100 free color looks alongside CineDream, a grading plug-in for Adobe Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, and Final Cut Pro. CineDream also works with Photoshop and Lightroom. The LUT collection can be previewed on footage and exported as .cube files. For grading, CineDream includes on-image Click and Grade, film effects, batch and match, skin and exposure guides, scope-based controls, and LUT preview and mixing. Its workflow uses ACES 2.0 color science and includes four film-inspired emulations. The plug-in supports LOG and non-LOG footage from Sony, Canon, Panasonic, Blackmagic, ARRI, RED, DJI, GoPro, and other cameras, and can grade JPG, PNG, and TIFF stills. A free demo includes all features and works with a user’s footage, but puts a watermark on exports. The annual subscription is $99 a year; the perpetual license is $249, paid once. Each license allows activation on up to two computers. Minimum requirements include Windows 10 or 11 or macOS 13.4 or later and 16 GB RAM; GPU requirements and supported software versions are listed on the site.
