Hi Gustavo and Elliott
Sorry for the late response. Thank you for your thoughts and input!
Apparently the conversion to ACES is working how it is supposed to, and the thing I need is some way to grade the footage as a temporary look that I can apply throughout the pipeline for preview, without actually “baking it in” to the footage.
Elliott, you mentioned that I can use an RRT for this, if I correctly understand the workflow you described. How exactly can I work with an RRT, I was having a hard time finding information that actually helped me understand the concept and how to use it in a workflow. Are there some online resources to find free “premade” RRT looks to “flatten” my image for preview purposes? I imagine the RRT to work almost like some kind of preview LUT that I add right before my ODT. Is that correct? How can I go about creating one myself and how can I use it in applications like Nuke and Blender, is this something I have to configure as part of my OCIO config, or do I set this manually in every application?
Sorry for the confused questions, and thanks to everyone for your help. It is very much appreciated!
