In this Episode of the ColorCast, the Coloristos talk about LUTs and their use in post-production. They cover the basics of 1D and 3D LUTs, including how they're built, their various applications in a post pipeline, and the requirements for using them correctly.

They also discuss the origins of LUTs from their early application as a film color science tool, to their more recent, wide-spread use as a way to transfer, as well as commercialize, creative looks for use in color grading.
