ios app that contains excellent film LUTs
Dehancer is a film-like app and DaVinci Resolve OFX video plugin for color grading with 3D Lut profiles. Dozens of real photographic and motion picture films are precisely captured, emulated and packed in a simple to use and effective plugin with truly analogue controls simulating real film behaviou...
i am following the blog of the photographer who created the app for more than ten years. he was obsessed by a research - why our digital photos do not look like our film photos, and came up with a book about colour in digital photography: https://blog.dehancer.com/lifelike-book/
meanwhile he developed a photoshop action script called 'degradr', which later evolved into an ios app with the same name, and then later he decided that the best he can do is to develop a process to create film LUTs, and a special process of applying those film LUTs.
for example, he believes that it is necessary first to print a colour photograph in analog way on a paper, and then create a LUT from the photo of a color checker printed in analog way.
he also has a method of applying the LUT by taking into consideration "psychophysiology of humans", i guess by applying the LUT not in linear way, but by using sort of S curve.
unfortunately the app requires subscription. there are also davinci plugins.
It seems that, unfortunately, the app isn't available for download on App Store anymore.
