Abstract

Color grading in the analog film era and the early days of digital video production meant only a very narrow range of image reprocessing due to technical limitations. However, the development of technology and the advent of high-performance digital cameras to capture images in Log or RAW formats have made the color grading stage in modern film post-production no longer an artistic choice but an essential step. This study suggests an alternative solution given the fact that the completeness of video production practice work by student on their first or second-year in the field of university video education is often insufficient due to their lack of technical understanding. Currently, filmmaking practice is conducted gradually for students in all grades in the video-related department curriculums of most universities, while in-depth education and color correction education practice on the post-production stage are conducted only for students on their third or fourth-year. However, these environmental constraints are not the result of a lack of understanding by film industry workers or film educators regarding the importance of post-production technology. They arise due to a lack of understanding of earlier concepts in film production, such as principal photography, lighting, and sound design, which should be prioritized on top of theoretical knowledge of media in order to ensure a sound understanding of post-production technology. Therefore, this paper aims to present the use of a lookup table workflow as a realistic alternative that can be applied to the film production practice of students early in their college years who will later learn in the full-scale post-production stage. In addition, by utilizing the LUT workflow for the creation of an analog film look in digital images as a visual example necessary during the research process, we intend to contribute through this study to the expansion of the selection of student film works, such as by reviving the look of specific time periods.
