If you’ve wanted to up the cinematic quality of your videos so that they look like film, then you need to check out mLUT. mLut is an easy to use plugin for Final Cut Pro X which immediately changes the overall look of your project. It’s perfect for all kinds of cinema; whether you want your video to look like the next great Western, a creepy mystery, or an epic masterpiece.
In order to get mLut, you’ll first need to instal the special “mInstaller” you can get that here: https://www.motionvfx.com/minstaller
Keep in mind that when installing plugins for Final Cut Pro you can not have FCP running at the time of installation.
There are several different types of mLut packages, but all of them can be found here: https://www.motionvfx.com/store,search,mlut,3,0,1,1.html
I personally own the “Blockbuster 2” package, but all of them are very well crafted.

“little” <3
I’m new into video editing. I have a 2011 MacBook Pro 2.5ghz/16GB RAM/1 TB SSD/Dual Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6770M 1GB and Intel HD Graphics 3000 512. Is this powerful enough to edit a 3-camera shoot with audio or do I need to upgrade? Is the new e-GPU by Sonnett and option or do I need a new MacBook Pro 3.1/16gb/560 – or do I need an iMac? Thank you.
Please check out my first ever travel video, on youtube! – Skiing in Norway
Hope you like it 😉

The after video looks amazing! Thanks for this video!
Thanks man! Pretty awesome what you do.
lmao i thought you were gonna use the 12 years a slave effect on this positive video edit lol !
I really LUT what you did here. I’m finding more and more clients like a much less saturated look. But LUT’s are great to have on deck when working on a budget project and don’t have the gear nor time to color correct.
Have you tried using sLUTs to make your videos look better?
The only one that looks really good after is the desert at 10:46
Using an adjustment layer is even easier than copy and paste
I followed the link for the relatively inexpensive camera. It’s 1k. Whew!
Curious what king of chair you’re using?
Man!!!! You are the man!!! Great work!!!!
But there’s also a very simple but important shot here, and that’s this 50/50
amazing video, great music
Didn’t see that much difference between the original and the edited, I thought that it being a paid software it would be amazing and stunning, but it’s not.
wow thx I did see the difference and I think it is going to help me greatly… thanks so much for ur time ^-^
What is the song you used in the trailer? i would like a link for it please
Which of the mLut packages do you recommend for doing church video?
honestly the most wasted 12 mins of my life that was really bad and the original is way better
Meh, I would rather do the work in color correction myself, you learn more that way. IMO LUTS are for people who don’t want to invest or don’t have the time to invest in doing the work themselves, which is fine. Just not for me. Plus I think the LUT you used on that clip needed a lot of correction over the multiple clips, so really you didn’t save yourself much time IMO. I am not a pro, I am an amateur enthusiast who is just starting to work with color and trying to up my post production game. But diving into it, if you put in the time you can achieve these looks for free and over time you just know where to make the color corrections at. This honestly seems more like an add rather than some kind of instructional video to make your production better. Whats the old saying, give a man a fish and he can eat for a day, teach man to fish and he can eat for a lifetime, same applies here. If your in a pinch and don’t have a LUT, say your borrowing your friends computer to do an edit for a quick vlog or something, your screwed b/c you relied on someone else doing the work for you.
I think this is cool, some people are not that great with color grading, so using luts is easier, i honestly like how with final cut you can just drop luts, and effects onto your files, i personally use davinci resolve, adobe premiere setup is just too complicated, im gonna look into this and start using final cut more, but is there a way to adjust the luts once you apply to video? Im thinking you should…
i downloaded mlut but it doesnt pop up after I go to the icon to choose the type of mlut i want.
I recommend investing in lighting, audio, and education rather than editing software.
Terrible sound
skin tone is fkd.
free plugins are avalable ?
I immediately knew that this video was for marketing purposes and not really a tutorial.. On top of that, I don’t see a difference. Anything for a dollar. He basically said, buy my plugin. SMH..
Awesome video.
I used to mlut & color correction in FCPX 10.3.3. It’s very good plug-in. https://youtu.be/P1_L3620zCI
Hi David – question. Your “before” footage looks pretty good right from the camera, so you don’t shoot flat or LOG?
What drone camera do you use?
can i just do this look with color gradients ?? or is the plugins doing somthing i cant do
Nice video exactly what I’m trying to go for. Im trying to convince myself to make the jump and buy final cut
Ha! And I am using my AG-DVX100B into turning the 4:3 to 16:9 to HD… totally the opposite
So far Final Cut hasn’t impressed as much
it’s good
I’m having a hard time with editing for my beauty channel. Im about to purchase a MacBook because it comes with Final Cut Pro on it. Is there anyone you know that makes videos on Youtube on how to to edit start to finish once video has been recorded? I’ve asked around to lots of influencers but none of them will answer my questions or help me. I’m willing to learn because I’ve been a makeup artist for over 25 years and really want to do this! I came across your video in hoping you could guide me in the right direction. Thank you wendy
This still doesn’t look like it was shot on film at all. It just looks like digital footage that was color graded with a LUT, which is exactly what it is.
I preferred the mLut file… even watching it on my over saturated note 8 screen which I took into consideration… most of the footage just looked better… like you said, certain clips will need tweaking… but I loved the last shot of the coastline… that looked very cinematic. I’ve learned a lot from this… many thanks indeed… best wishes….J
It says $59.00 this video entails that there is no money spent hmm oh and dont complain about people moaning about the price of these has it accured to you that maybe there is a particular reason why they are moaning perhaps because we even have absolutley no money unlike yourself, please do not think when commenting on other people think that they are at the same stage as you in there journey it is an assumption that can annoy people!!!!!!!!!
