What it is
Look Designer 3 is a film emulation and look design plugin for DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere. It includes motion picture negative stocks, print profiles, and a digital film laboratory with subtractive processing and film profiles. Color tools cover advanced color management, gamut limiting, post-processing, LUT export and stress testing, and X01 import and export. The product page lists built-in support for more than 20 camera brands and EL Zones by Ed Lachman, a scene-referred exposure analysis system for exposure and grading control. The described workflow is to install the plugin, choose negative, print, and contrast combinations, then refine the image with analogue adjustment tools. SDR/HDR switching and export presets for Netflix, IMAX, and iPhone are listed. Monthly plans cost $24 a month, yearly plans $249 a year, and perpetual plans $490, paid once. Separate Resolve and Premiere trials have no time limit, add a watermark, require no credit card details, and include free training. The plugin supports Linux, macOS, and Windows.
