The Cinelook Plugin for DaVinci Resolve features cinematic looks and film print emulations, developed by some of the industry’s most respected colorists and color scientists.
Beyond its premium look library, the plugin also includes a powerful suite of advanced color grading tools — including density, compression, volume, and vibrance controls — giving you precise creative control and flexibility in your grading workflow.
Instantly present powerful looks to your client – inside of DaVinci Resolve. Textured and painterly looks – true to real film.
FILM SLIDERS
Sliders that let you create strong film contrast, painterly highlights, compressed shadows and reduce sharp edges. Just like real film.
The goal with my contribution to Cinelook was to get the absolute best side-by-side display of digital with real film. With about ten thousand patches for intermediate recorder film out and print, the result showed a virtually indistinguishable comparison with real film, except for the film projector jitter.

QUALITY
Every technical component of all the looks on Cinelook are shaped by color scientists to ensure the image does not quantize, clip or clamp, and the looks are tested against every valid possible input color. As long as the color space characteristics of your image align with the color space you select within the tool, you’ll never see any breakage.
In general, how smooth a curve should be is a complex discussion because we need to balance the various mathematical formulas that is used to smooth out the movement from one curve point to the next with the designers creative intent. Also, the curves of the looks who are true film profiles reflect the actual measured and jagged behaviour of the print.
