Download LUT Buddy from Magic Bullet and install it. It is a simple plugin that allows you to add a LUT to a clip. The first option for applying LUTs in FCP 7 is a free plugin with a funny name. At the bottom of this section I've outlined how to send the corrected footage through Compressor for rendering. These FCP 7 plugins require that footage be rendered after the plugin is applied, though some systems might be able to keep up. Below is an outline of the different available options and how to use them. There are many different plugins available for Final Cut Pro that can correct for Log footage.
We'll start with Final Cut Pro 7 & X, but here are a couple quick links to jump down to different sections - Adobe Premiere, Avid Media Composer, DaVinci Resolve. For the purposes of this demo though, I'll focus on some inexpensive (or free) utilities that can tackle the problem. There are a lot of great programs available that make this process very easy, like Scratch Lab, YoYotta, ColorFront OSD, and many more. We are often asked how to use these LUTs and work with Log in general, so I have put together some methods for using LUTs and other plugins to work with Log footage in different NLEs. Read the Feb 2014 update here, Updated Applying LUTs to Log footage. Arri has their online LUT Generator, and the Technicolor CineStyle LUTs are available when using the CineStyle profile on the 5D Mark II. You can download the F3 LUTs and the C300 LUTs, as many of you have already done. Working with Log material can be difficult at times, so we have put out a couple of different LUTs for use when using the Sony F3's S-Log or Canon Log from the Canon C300.
