Jussi Rovanperä January 9, 2018 Share January 9, 2018 It's linear algebra, a 3x3 matrix multiplication, that will transform 3 values into another 3 values. Typically the color matrixes are color space or color gamut transformations, like RGB-to-XYZ or XYZ-to-RGB transformations. So if you want to transform color from one RGB gamut to another RGB gamut, you would use 2 matrixes: rgb1-to-XYZ and XYZ-to-rgb2. This is just a super simplified explanation... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Singh January 12, 2018 Author Share January 12, 2018 Does that mean a 3x3 color matrix transformation is what happens when you use a technical LUT to go from a color space to another? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jussi Rovanperä January 12, 2018 Share January 12, 2018 A technical LUT that transforms the color space is created by running values thru a matrix, and then writing the results to a LUT. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jussi Rovanperä January 12, 2018 Share January 12, 2018 This is in Fusion: First node LUTcubecreator created a HALD pattern (the color grid) Second node applies a color matrix (in this case just a unit matrix that does nothing) Third node analyzes what has changed in the HALD pattern and writes the LUT file. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
