cinematic look in wedding videos

Hello,

I would like to achieve cinematic look in weddings videos.

I mean colors of course.

Is it possible to apply some predefined look by i.e. LUT file in Vegas Pro 19 (Vegas 365)?

Is this such cinematic look available in Vegas Pro 19 as built-in preset?

Regards
Marcin

Yes. Vegas Pro has an inbuilt FX called LUT Filter.

The Vegas Pro website has a detailed information page about using LUTs in Vegas Pro, and includes how to create your own LUTs:

If you do a Google/Bing search, you'll find lots of free or purchasable LUTs that may (or may not) meet your desired 'look'.

VEGAS 19 also comes with many cinematic LUTs already built in. To use these, open the color grading panel by pressing the color grading button or by pressing alt+G. From there, navigate to the "look LUT" tab on the right, and in the drop-down menu next to LUT, you'll see a collection of LUT presets. Try each until you find one you like.

To help make sure that a cinematic LUT looks like it was intended to, it helps to apply a Camera LUT too (in the far left tab of the color grading panel), if one is available for your model. The Camera LUT essentially color corrects and the Look LUT color grades the corrected image...if I'm using the terminology right.
