Hello Filmstylers,
a few Panasonic Camera users which wanted to load our LUTs inside their cameras for live previewing weren’t able to do so. We had a couple of trouble shooting tickets on this matter we came up with the solution. Panasonic supports 32bit versions for LUTs where all of our products are delivered for higher quality at 64bit.
A fast solution for you is to open the LUT in Photoshop in an empty document with a background layer, and re-export it as a 32bit .CUBE file when choosing the quality options. If for any reason this is not possible and the LUTs didn’t work for you, quickly send us a support email at info@andpfilmstyles.com and we will take care to do the conversion for you. Attaching your order(s) number(s) will be needed and we will send you the 32bit versions for the LUTs you already own.
In any case, coming next Friday, March 1st 2024, we scheduled to update all existing products to include both 32bit and 64bit versions for this reason.
Thank you and happy LUTing!
Feature showcase – Alina by thomasandp in ANDP Portra 160
This late November finds us in Kyiv, Ukraine. For those who don’t know my backstory, I used to live here and left in the first days of the 2022 war, and moved to my current base in the Netherlands. With the war ongoing, but not so close to Kyiv anymore, I paid a visit to my desolate home. Of course being in Kyiv once again, I wouldn’t miss the opportunity for some art making.
Being in wartime, I like that the images get an extra editorial value and are not solely just for my abstract sense of how I produce these portrait sets, and for no other reason other than themselves.
Except for the portrait part of a great model such as Alina, I also want to show the beauty of ANDP Portra 160, because the original palette of colors could compliment the use of that simulation. To further enhance the film simulation feel, I shot with my DIY haze filter to create a sense of glow in the images that would be against the light source, and to soften then light fall off from the edges of her body. This effect works well with ANDP Portra 160 because of how the LUT handles highlights and it’s inherent curve settings. Very satisfied with the result, I hope it’s as inspiring for you as it was for me.
