## Overview

Apply professional 3D Look-Up Tables (LUTs) directly to your video files online. This tool allows you to upload a video, select a LUT file in formats like .cube or .3dl, configure interpolation modes, and export the color-graded video in formats like MP4, MOV, or WebM while preserving the original audio track.

## Inputs

- **Video File** (file): Select a video file to apply LUT
- **LUT File (.cube, .3dl, etc.)** (file): Select a 3D LUT file to apply
- **Interpolation Mode** (select)
- **Output Format** (select)
- **Keep Audio** (checkbox): Preserve audio track

## When to use

- When you need to apply a cinematic color grade to raw or log video footage using a standard .cube or .3dl LUT file.
- When you want to preview how a specific 3D LUT looks on your video clip without opening heavy desktop editing software.
- When you need to quickly convert a video to a different format while baking in a color profile.

## How it works

- Upload your source video file and your 3D LUT file (such as .cube, .3dl, or .vf).
- Choose your preferred interpolation mode, such as Tetrahedral for high-quality color rendering or Trilinear.
- Select the desired output format (MP4, WebM, MKV, AVI, or MOV) and choose whether to keep the audio track.
- Process the video to apply the color grading and download the finalized file.

## Use cases

- Color grading log footage from mirrorless cameras to match a specific cinematic style using a .cube LUT.
- Quick color correction of social media clips before publishing to platforms like YouTube or Instagram.
- Testing and comparing different LUT presets on a test clip using different interpolation algorithms.

## Frequently asked questions

### What LUT file formats are supported?

The tool supports common 3D LUT formats including .cube, .3dl, .mga, .mdat, .spi, .spi3d, and .vf.

### Which interpolation mode should I choose?

Tetrahedral interpolation is recommended for the highest quality color accuracy and smoothest gradients.

### Can I keep the original audio from my video?

Yes, check the 'Keep Audio' option to preserve the original audio track in the output video.

### What output video formats can I export to?

You can export your color-graded video to MP4, WebM, MKV, AVI, or MOV formats.

### Is there a file size limit for the video and LUT files?

Yes, the video file limit is 100 MB, and the LUT file limit is 10 MB.
