see thats great info… so what your saying is when you prerender the scene its done with a pre-cognizance that the correct LUT is baked in?
I make the major color/contrast choices with a LUT in Blender, yes. A neutral LUT in VPX stays pretty close to what I prerendered in Blender. These days it is warm light from the GI and slightly cooler light from the environment. Like shooting with film, roll off the highlights gracefully and protect the shadow details without making them too light. It changes with every project but seemed good when I was setting up the render.
one of these is the stock setup, the other has a luts added, little light adjust, and environment adjust…
For a table from this era I prefer the warmer colors on the left and am undecided on the contrast boost that you see in the shadows on the right. Scott was good enough to let me work on the graphics and turn in the version that I wanted to see. I’m glad everyone can tweak it to their liking.
