- Expose well in camera. The LUTs are built for properly exposed log. Underexposed log gets noisy once it's graded.
- Correct first, then the LUT. Set exposure and white balance before the LUT, never after it.
- Dial it back if you need to. Lower the LUT's intensity or opacity when the look is too strong for a shot.
- Judge it on skin. If faces look right, the rest usually follows.
