Archipelago - Light & Legacy LUTs

Archipelago Light & Legacy LUTs offer a powerful and artistic approach to color grading by blending the nostalgic essence of analog film with the precision of digital video editing. Created for filmmakers, video editors, and colorists looking to replicate the rich tones of film photography, this LUT pack includes six expertly crafted looks that mirror the same filmic aesthetics found in Archipelago’s most popular Lightroom presets.

These LUTs are built using the same scanning technology and color science used by film photographers, giving digital creators access to soft pastel hues, vibrant highlights, and incredibly lifelike skin tones. Designed to evoke emotion and enhance storytelling, the Light & Legacy LUTs offer a dynamic range and tonal accuracy that make your footage feel timeless and cinematic.

The collection includes six .CUBE LUTs labeled LIGHT & LEGACY 01 through 06, each offering a unique take on analog film chemistry. Whether you're working on narrative films, travel content, wedding videography, or branded visuals, this LUT pack gives you a versatile toolkit to enhance your footage with elegance and subtlety.

These LUTs are compatible with a wide range of professional video editing platforms including Adobe Premiere Pro (CC 2017 and newer), DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro X (10.4 and above), Adobe After Effects, LumaFusion, and any software that supports .CUBE LUT files.

For best results, apply the LUTs to Rec.709 footage, or convert your log footage to Rec.709 before grading. This ensures accurate color rendering and the most cinematic output.

With Light & Legacy, Archipelago has bridged the gap between analog film aesthetics and modern digital workflows, giving creators an essential toolset for expressive, film-inspired storytelling.
