How to add the LUTs to your editor

Premiere Pro

Lumetri Color > Creative > Look > Browse… > the .cube file. Try 50–80% on the Intensity slider. Set exposure and white balance in Basic Correction first.

DaVinci Resolve

Project Settings > Color Management > Open LUT Folder; copy the folder in and click “Update Lists”. On the Color page, right-click a node > 3D LUT > Rast. Put the LUT on the node after your correction node.

Final Cut Pro

Drag the Effects > Color > Custom LUT effect onto the clip, then in the Inspector choose LUT > “Choose Custom LUT…” and select the .cube file. Lower the strength with Mix.

CapCut (desktop)

Select the clip, go to Adjust > LUT > Import and add the .cube file; set the intensity with the slider. .cube support in the mobile app depends on the version.

  • Order matters: exposure and white balance first, then the LUT. A LUT won't fix bad footage; it gives good footage character.
  • Shot in log? Apply your camera's Rec.709 conversion first, then the Rast LUT.
  • Consistency: pick one LUT per video and use the same intensity on every clip; even out scenes with small exposure tweaks.
  • Export: export in Rec.709 / sRGB so the grade looks the same on phones.

Want to polish the sound too? Try the free SFX pack; for text placement on vertical video, the safe zone checker. To export without wrecking the grade, check the video bitrate calculator.

The .cube files keep their original Turkish file names: rast-sicak-film = Warm Film, rast-soguk-gece = Cool Night, rast-dogal-kontrast = Natural Contrast, rast-soluk-matte = Faded Matte, rast-altin-saat-hafif = Subtle Golden Hour. The zip includes an English README.txt with install steps for Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro and CapCut (OKU-BENI.txt is the Turkish version).

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do these LUTs work on log footage (S-Log, V-Log, D-Log)?

Not directly. These are creative (look) LUTs, not conversion LUTs, built for normal Rec.709 footage. If you shot log, first apply your camera maker's Rec.709 conversion LUT or a color space transform in Resolve, then add the Rast LUT as the next step.

How do I load a LUT in Premiere Pro?

Open the Creative section of the Lumetri Color panel, choose Browse in the Look menu and select the .cube file. Set the strength with the Intensity slider; 50–80% looks most natural on most footage. To keep the LUTs available, you can also copy the files into Premiere's LUTs/Creative folder.

Where do LUTs go in DaVinci Resolve?

Go to Project Settings > Color Management > Open LUT Folder, copy the Rast folder inside and click “Update Lists”. On the Color page, right-click a node and pick 3D LUT > Rast. To reduce the strength, put the LUT on its own node and lower Key Output Gain.

Can I use them in CapCut and Final Cut Pro?

Yes. In CapCut desktop, import the .cube file under Adjust > LUT. In Final Cut Pro, add the Effects > Color > Custom LUT effect to the clip and choose “Choose Custom LUT…” in the LUT menu.

Will they ruin skin tones?

We limited the hue shift in the skin-tone range when building the LUTs: on faces and arms in our own footage the hue moved by less than 2 degrees. With very different light (green fluorescents, mixed light) fix the white balance first, then apply the LUT.

Can I use them for commercial work?

Yes. The LUTs are licensed CC BY 4.0: use and modify them in client work, ads and social media videos. The only condition is credit: “Color LUT: Rast Creative Studio — rastcreative.com”. Don't resell the LUT files as they are.
