Moody & Dark LUTs — Low-Key Dramatic Grades

Crushed-but-controlled shadows, desaturated palettes and cool undertones for footage that needs weight: night scenes, fashion, interviews with attitude.

Moody grades expose noisy shadows fast — shoot a stop brighter than you think you need, then let the LUT pull the image down cleanly.

Every LUT downloads at the strength you choose — set 50, 70 or 100% in the LUT Library preview and it's baked into the .cube. That means the look works at your chosen 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.

100%

The strength you pick is baked into the .cube you download.

Every LUT in this pack

  • Teal & Orange

    LITE

    The iconic complementary split — teal shadows with orange midtones for cinematic punch.

  • Dark Mood

    STUDIO

    Crushed blacks with heavy desaturation and a cold blue shift — brooding and intense.

  • Slate

    LITE

    Desaturated blue-grey drama — the interview-with-weight grade. Controlled shadows, muted color, nothing sentimental.

  • After Rain

    PRO

    Wet-street cool — reflective highlights kept bright and clean over deep neutral shadows. Made for pavement, glass and drizzle.

  • Undertow

    PRO

    Deep green-black shadows with cold restraint — thriller tension. Color drains as the image darkens; highlights stay surgical.

How to use these LUTs

  1. Open the LUT Library, preview any grade on your own frame with the before/after slider, and download the .cube file.
  2. Import it into your editor — works in DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, CapCut, Filmora and any other tool that reads 3D .cube LUTs.
  3. Pick the matching footage type before downloading (Standard, Apple Log, D-Log M, S-Log3, V-Log or C-Log3) and the log-to-Rec.709 conversion is baked in for you.
  4. Set the intensity slider before you download — the strength you pick is baked into the file, so 70% in the preview is exactly 70% in your edit.

How intensity works

Every preview has an intensity slider (0–100%). Whatever you set is rendered into the .cube itself — the file is 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 at 100% as well — each strength is its own .cube file, and downloads are unlimited once a look is unlocked.
