LUT to Look

Wrap a 3D LUT as a Baselight Look

This utility wraps a 3D LUT into a “Look” file that can be applied via the Look operator in Baselight and Daylight.

Your 3D LUT must be designed to use the same scene-refered colour space as input and output (e.g. a camera log space, T-log, or ACES).

How To Use

Simply run lut_to_look.app on a Mac Baselight/Daylight system or lut_to_look on Linux system.

How to Modify

If you want to make changes to the code, you’ll need to install tkinter and tkinterdnd2 for Python, e.g. on Linux:

sudo dnf --enablerepo=appstream install python3-tkinter
sudo python3 -m pip install tkinterdnd2

on Mac (using Homebrew):

brew install python3-tk
sudo python3 -m pip install tkinterdnd2

For testing, run it with

python3 lut_to_look.py

To re-compile as an app, run

pyinstaller --onefile -w lut_to_look.py

Linux may require using the -add-data flag to compile:

pyinstaller --add-data /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/tkinterdnd2:tkinterdnd2 --onefile -w lut_to_look.py
