You bought the LUT. You followed the tutorial. But somehow... your footage still looks amateur. Why?

In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with Enikő, a professional colorist with a PhD in mathematical biology, to uncover why even beautifully lit footage can fall flat—and why no LUT can replace real intention, prep, and understanding of color. We dig into why pre-production matters, how to think about mood and palette before you shoot, and the myth of cinematic shortcuts.

If you’ve ever been frustrated with your film’s look or felt misled by trendy tools, this conversation might change the way you approach filmmaking—from the very beginning.
