LUT Generator — Extract a Color Grade from Any Footage
Turn the look of any footage into a reusable LUT: upload reference images or clips whose color grade you love, and get back a standard .cube file that applies that look to anything else. It’s how you copy a grade — from a film still, a music video, a photographer’s edit — without recreating it by eye.
There are two ways to use it. In look mode, upload only references and the LUT captures their overall grade. In match mode, also upload your own footage: the LUT is then fitted specifically to carry your footage’s colors toward the reference’s look, which gives a more faithful match than a generic look LUT.
The output is a standard .cube file that works in editing and grading software — and can be applied directly to your videos and photos here.
How to extract a LUT
- Upload reference footage — 1 to 40 images or video clips with the look you want to capture.
- Optionally upload your own footage to switch to match mode and fit the grade to it.
- Download the .cube LUT — ready to apply anywhere LUTs are supported.
What you can do with it
- Copy the color grade of a reference frame onto your own footage
- Match two cameras or two shoots to a single consistent look
- Build a reusable house-style LUT from your best previous work
- Recreate a look from stills when the original grade isn’t available
FAQ
What do I get exactly? A standard 3D LUT in .cube format — the same kind of file grading packs sell — usable in professional editing software and here.
How many references should I upload? Even one image works. A handful of frames that share the same look gives a more robust result.
What’s the difference between look mode and match mode? Look mode captures the reference’s grade in general. Match mode fits the transformation from your specific footage to the reference, so the result is tailored to your material.
