REDCine generic looks

[Steve Phillipps]

Is there anyone who has made a set of generic manipulations for different looks and different situations for REDCine. By that I mean a set of alterations of colour balance, contrast, brightness etc. to suit different shooting situations which you could just drag onto a whole bunch of clips that suit those general conditions. So you might have one called Outdoors Contrasty, Low Light Tungsten, Dynamic Range Enhance, Hi Colour etc. I'm kind of thinking that for a lot of situations a very general group of settings will help most images shot in the situations they were designed for and could save a lot of time doing RAW manipulations (especially if you're not great at it!) These would equate somewhat to the way Vid Cams are set up in the menus, so stretching blacks, changing gamma slopes etc.
Anyone got any idea what I'm talking about or am I just rambling?:whistling:

Steve,

I love this idea and have looked online for presets for both RedAlert and RedCine. . . I am sure they are coming, however, I will say this. Seems like even when I use my very own presets, for one particular shot, I STILL have to go in and tweak the colors just a bit, and I am the creator! I guess that just manipulating the RAW info is as much of an art as the final color correction.

I'd love to see a RED Exchange site go up or a downloads area for this forum, where people can post their scene files, presets and looks, etc...

I would love to see this too. I have started collecting my own set of looks over the last few months....

What I WOULD like to see however, is the ability to apply looks to more than one clip at a time. Copy paste works, but it definitely feels clunky.
