Discover, preview, test, and download LUTs faster with Envato's dedicated LUTs category.
Choosing a LUT has always involved guesswork. You download a pack, apply a few LUTs, realize they don’t suit your footage, and start the process again.
The Envato LUTs category changes that.
Instead of guessing, you can upload up to five frames from your own footage, instantly preview how thousands of LUTs look across different scenes, and compare results before downloading. Combined with 66,000+ individually searchable LUTs, it’s a faster, more reliable way to find the right color grade for your project.
Whether you’re working in Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, CapCut, or another editing platform, the Envato LUTs category helps you spend less time guessing and more time creating.
The Envato LUTs category is a dedicated library of professional color-grading LUTs built around a preview-first discovery approach. Instead of downloading entire LUT packs, creators can search individual LUTs, preview them on sample footage, or upload up to five frames from their own project to see how each LUT performs across multiple shots before downloading.
Most LUT previews show:
The problem:
Your footage is different.
Different:
Envato solves this by allowing you to upload your own frames.
LUTs (Look-Up Tables) are color-grading presets that transform color input values into desired output values, allowing you to manipulate saturation and contrast or completely change the color of video clips to create unique cinematic styles.
Video professionals rely on LUTs for three key reasons:
LUTs were previously sold exclusively as ZIP packs within the Video Templates category. You had no way to preview individual LUT effects before downloading entire packs, making discovery time-intensive and unpredictable.
Finding the right LUT meant browsing through motion graphics and transitions, downloading full packs to test single presets, then organizing files manually. The workflow went against creative momentum — exactly when you needed quick access to the right look.
Envato’s new LUTs category provides access to 66,000 individual LUTs, each searchable and previewable independently. Each LUT includes pre-rendered video previews showing the effect applied to sample footage, as well as the ability to upload your own frame to test compatibility with your specific content.
Enhanced metadata covers mood, color characteristics, and technical purpose, with filtering by color temperature and creative application. The system transforms LUT discovery from guesswork into informed decision-making.
Search across 66,000+ individual LUTs by keyword, mood, and technical application. Filter by color characteristics, creative purpose, and compatibility to find the exact LUT you need without browsing opaque packs.
The search system understands creative intent — look for “warm sunset” or “cold winter” and get LUTs that match the aesthetic, not just filename keywords.
See how each LUT looks applied to sample footage before downloading. Slider functionality lets you compare before/after effects across the available preview videos, with multiple preview videos per LUT to choose from, showing different footage types.
This eliminates the download-test-delete cycle that wastes time and storage space. You know what you’re getting before you commit.
Test any LUT on your specific footage before downloading. Upload up to five frames from your project to assess color grade compatibility with your lighting conditions and shooting style.
This market-leading preview capability ensures confident LUT selection. No more discovering incompatibility after you’ve already integrated a LUT into your timeline.
Each individual LUT includes clear titles, descriptions, and style information. Technical specifications cover software compatibility and color space requirements, while mood and aesthetic tags enable easier discovery.
The metadata system helps you understand not just what a LUT does, but when and why to use it in your workflow.
Envato LUTs work seamlessly with Adobe Premiere Pro, Photoshop, After Effects, and other Adobe applications. Apply LUTs through the Lumetri Color panel under Basic Correction, with support for both.CUBE and .look file formats.
The integration maintains real-time preview performance while preserving color accuracy across your entire Creative Cloud workflow.
DaVinci Resolve provides seamless workflow integration alongside Adobe Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro. Import LUTs through the Color tab and LUTs panel, then drag-and-drop the application onto the node graph with intensity adjustment controls.
Resolve’s node-based system gives you precise control over LUT placement in your color grading pipeline.
Final Cut Pro supports Envato LUTs as long as the software supports.CUBE files. Apply through Color Board or Color Wheels with full support for 3D LUTs and real-time preview.
The integration preserves Final Cut’s optimized playback performance while adding professional color grading capabilities.
Envato LUTs are compatible with mobile-first video editing apps, including CapCut, LumaFusion, Kinemaster, and the VN App, on both iOS and Android. Support spans professional and consumer-level editing software, with cross-platform compatibility, ensuring consistent results.
This broad compatibility means your LUT library works wherever you edit — on desktops, tablets, or phones.
LUTs download as.CUBE files ready for immediate use. Organize by project, mood, or software for efficient access. Create dedicated LUT folders within your editing software’s preset library to maintain workflow efficiency.
Consider organizing by technical purpose — separate folders for LOG-to-Rec. 709 conversion LUTs and creative enhancement LUTs help you find the right tool quickly.
Premiere Pro: Import through Lumetri Color → Basic Correction → Input LUT. The LUT appears in your project’s color workspace for immediate application.
DaVinci Resolve: Access the Color tab → LUTs panel → browse and apply. LUTs integrate directly into Resolve’s node graph for advanced color workflows.
Final Cut Pro: Navigate to Effects browser → Color category → Custom LUT option. Final Cut automatically indexes imported LUTs for quick access.
Use LOG-specific LUTs for LOG footage and Rec. 709 LUTs for standard footage — using the wrong LUT can result in overly dark or oversaturated colors. Match your LUT choice to your source material’s color space.
Reduce LUT intensity using opacity sliders or blending modes for more subtle, professional-grade results. Full-strength LUTs often need adjustment for natural-looking color grades.
Verify color space compatibility between your footage and the selected LUT. Mismatched color spaces create unpredictable results that require additional correction.
Ensure footage matches from shot to shot, is properly exposed, and color corrected before applying LUTs for optimal results. Balance exposure, contrast, and white balance first — LUTs work best as creative enhancement after technical correction.
Think of LUTs as the final creative step, not a fix for poorly shot footage. Proper exposure and white balance create the foundation for effective LUT application.
Choose LUTs that match your project’s mood and genre requirements. Transform footage to look like favorite films and shows with specific LUT styles designed around cinematic references.
Layer multiple LUTs at reduced opacity for custom looks. Combine a technical LUT for proper exposure with a creative LUT for mood, adjusting the blend to achieve your desired aesthetic. Cinematic LUTs provide extensive examples of this layered approach.
Professional colorists often use video templates alongside LUTs to create cohesive visual packages that maintain consistency across different project elements.
LUTs save time by automating color grading while ensuring color consistency across projects. Apply LUTs early in your timeline for consistent preview during editing, then fine-tune individual clips as needed.
Create LUT presets for recurring project types or client preferences. Save client-approved looks as custom presets to speed up turnaround on similar projects.
Every LUT download includes lifetime commercial licensing for client work. Use across unlimited client projects without additional licensing fees, and the license persists even after subscription cancellation.
This eliminates the licensing anxiety that slows down project delivery. You’re covered for client work, monetized content, and commercial distribution from the moment you download.
No attribution is required for commercial video projects. You have full rights for monetized content, including YouTube, social media, and client deliverables. However, you cannot resell or redistribute LUTs as standalone products.
The license covers the creative use of LUTs in video projects, not the redistribution of LUT files. For detailed subscription information, check Envato pricing to understand how licensing fits into different plan levels.
