LUTs Explained! 1D vs 3D LUT?

What are LUTs, or Look Up Tables? Something you'll definitely come across when it comes to digital imaging, I explain in this video how they're used, and how they work.

great job explaining this

[@farkasszakal]

Agreed! 👏Very nicely covered...Thank you for this! 🙏

[@amadon3]

you are an excellent teacher. thank you for sharing your understanding of LUT's.

[@vistek]

This is fantastic. You were the only person I've ever seen explain the grid system of 3D Luts. Very well explained video. Bravo.

[@colemiller2244]

Perfect video, thank you! Short, no intro, great detail and visuals.

[@jan-hendrikbussmann4644]

Very good explanation. And I really like the animations you have used and the way you have used them to keep the video interesting and entertaining. After all, how information is presented determines if one will take it to memory after watching.

[@randyranson84]

I want to thank you and say you really are good at teaching intricate subjects quite simply and understandable. Great lesson.

[@danthompson9031]

As many have already stated, you are a natural at explaining complex information. Well done.

[@SingleFocusCoaching]

THANK YOU. What a wonderful, understandable, coherant way of explaining what a LUT is. It's so refreshing to watch a vidoe that gets right to the point, completely explains the promised answers and does it with clarity. I can't wait to see the other videos you have created.

[@Dartheomus]

Fantastic. Thank you! I'm so glad you pulled it all together with the grid explanation at the end. I was trying to figure this part out with the Canon LUT naming convention.

[@ZackLawrenceFilms]

I've heard about LUTs for years, but never took the time to learn what they were. Thank you for the info, it was very helpful!

[@RobinGroenevelt]

That was really good. I'm impressed! Thanks!

[@sidhup77]

Amazing as always!!!

[@RandomPerson-pp7ti]

Thank you! This was the only video I could find that actually explains how they work clearly.

[@wsfvn]

Perfect, nice and bright explanation.Thanks :)

[@ekphrastic_poet5362]

This was explained so well. LOL. I care much more about this subject than I should after hearing this explanation. For real tho, this explanation really sparked my curiosity about this subject, and I didn't really believe that was possible. Good work. Good teaching.

[@stvcolwill]

Very good explanation my friend. I respect that.

[@McEEb]

I like how you explained this concept. Thank you

[@v4mp1r384]

As programmer, I relly liked the way you gave a glance at the mathematical aspect without getting too much in depth. Good job!

[@chrisrakkestad]

Great video. All the other videoes on this stopped after the instagram analogy, which is the part I figured out myself by just choosing a LUT from the dropdown. Now I actually know what it does, which is what I wanted!

[@elieskateur]

Video well colorgraded with a simple but very eye pleasant look. Good composition, good skin tones and well managed lighting

Thanks a lot for this great explanation.
So good interpolation algorithms can bring more accuracy to the result when the LUTs resolution isn't that high.
