WHAT IS LOOKPOCKET LookPocket connects directly to your camera, and gives you more than a dozen color grading parameters to get your look to exactly where you need it. Moreover, the grading menus are fully customizable, so you can grade comfortably in your own way. HOW DOES IT WORK LookPocket calculates and updates your camera's internal color decision list (CDL) with your grading parameters in real time, allowing it to stay responsive and lightweight. Your underlying exposure (e.g. your log image) is not changed in any way. Instead, the CDL is saved in your original camera files' metadata along with your LUT, so you can recall your grading at any point in post production, but stay confident that your image stays exactly the way you exposed it. WORKFLOWS Because connection to the camera is established quickly and easily, the iPhone or iPad running LookPocket can stay on your pan bar, in your pocket, on your cart, or any where else on set. Then, when you need to adjust your colors, just pull up your phone, connect the camera, and away you grade! COMPATIBILITY - CDLs are saved directly in the original camera files, so post production receive them automatically - Import and export .cdl files for sharing and managing looks - Compatible with certain Arri and Sony cameras, such as Alexa 35, Alexa Mini-LF, Alexa Mini, Amira, Venice 1, and Venice 2 Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://www.lookpocket.com/support
