The modern desert-epic grade is not "orange filter": it is a near-monochromatic sand palette, saturation kept low but carried by film density so color reads heavy rather than grey, milky highlights that never clip, and skin that stays warm while the world desaturates around it. These five looks are built as one system around exactly that.
Five environments, one authorial voice: DEEP DESERT for daylight, SPICE STORM for golden dust and backlight, MOONLESS for night, BLACK SUN for the infrared near-monochrome, SLATE TIDE for cold overcast and water. Works with any footage type — pick Standard, Apple Log, DJI D-Log or D-Log M, Sony S-Log3, Panasonic V-Log, Canon C-Log3, Nikon N-Log, Fujifilm F-Log2, GoPro GP-Log, Samsung Log or HLG before downloading and the conversion is baked in.
The 5 LUTs plus any album you choose, with its own licence. We suggest Afterburn, and you can swap it at checkout.

The pack downloads at the strength you choose. Test it on a frame of your own footage, pick 50, 70 or 100% (or anything between) and every grade is built at that strength — or set one grade at a time in the LUT Library. The look then works at your strength even in camera apps and editors with no LUT-intensity control, and pulling it back never washes out the log conversion the way an editor's mix slider does.
When you download the pack, you pick the strength it's built at.
Every look renders with the same engine as the .cube download. Free looks download instantly — PRO and STUDIO looks unlock with the pack or a plan.

The hero grade — parchment monochrome daylight. Everything drawn onto one ochre axis, saturation low but dense, highlights that blow out to cream instead of white. Skin stays warm while the world goes to sand.
The trailer moment — golden-amber atmosphere at full strength. Heavy warm contamination, storm-light contrast, sun that blooms through dust. For golden hour, haze and backlit shots.
The night workhorse — steel-blue shadows and pale moonlit highlights over near-black ambience, with skin held warm through a narrow protect. Night exteriors, caves and low-light interiors.
The infrared look — near-monochrome under a bleached sky. Saturation stripped to a trace, silvery luminous skin, bloomed highlights and deep controlled blacks. Instantly recognisable, nothing else ships it.
The cold counterweight — muted ocean grey-blue, overcast softness, greens pulled out to slate. Makes the pack work on rain, coastlines and moody days, not just sand.
When you download the pack you test it on a frame of your own footage and pick one strength for every grade; in the LUT Library each preview has its own slider (0–100%). Whatever you set is rendered into the files themselves — regenerated at that strength, named accordingly (e.g. _70pct.cube), and looks identical in your editor to what you saw in the preview.
Why bake it in instead of using your editor's LUT-mix slider? Two reasons. Many tools have no per-LUT strength control at all — DaVinci Resolve hides it behind node key gain, and camera apps that load monitoring LUTs have none. And on log footage an editor's mix slider blends back toward the flat, grey log image, washing out the picture; our blend keeps the full log-to-Rec.709 conversion and fades only the creative grade on top of it.
Want the full-strength version too? Download again at 100% — each strength gets its own file names, and downloads are unlimited once you own the pack.
All 5 are standard 3D .cube files, so they load in DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, CapCut, Filmora and anything else that reads .cube — including camera apps that take a monitoring LUT.
Yes. Pick your footage type — Standard, Apple Log, D-Log M, S-Log3, V-Log, C-Log3, N-Log, F-Log2, GP-Log or HLG — before you download, and the log-to-Rec.709 conversion is baked into the .cube alongside the look.
Not in this pack — the free grades are the camera conversions, one per camera pack, collected at https://ireelz.com/luts/free. Everything here is a creative look, which is the part the packs sell.
Yes, before you download. Set 50, 70 or 100% in the preview and the .cube is regenerated at that strength, so it holds in CapCut and Filmora, which cannot dial a LUT back. On log footage this also beats an editor's mix slider, which fades toward the flat log image and washes the picture out.
$24 once. It is a one-time purchase, not a subscription, and re-authored versions replace your files in place at no cost. It is also included with a Creator Pro plan.
