DETAILED MASTER CLASS OVERVIEW
This workshop provides a comprehensive introduction to 3DLUT Creator’s sophisticated yet surprisingly intuitive, and most importantly visually oriented image editing workflow. By first understanding pictures we distinguish what needs to be done from what can be done. This clarifies how other editing applications help or hinder our process, what tools work as expected or don’t, and especially how 3DLUT Creator achieves so precisely and intuitively what other ‘industry leading’ software can’t. Through 3DLUT Creator we resolve their most pressing issues and pictorial conundrums, and thereby quickly evolve beyond their inherent colour editing and colour grading frustrations, limitations and ‘fatal flaws’.
Our Live Streamed Tutorials then focus 3DLUT Creator on ever more inspiring and inventive solutions, while quickly and efficiently resolving real world imaging problems, thereby also freeing up time, energy and focus that can be better devoted to your creative outcomes.
