Cullen Kelly To Release New Resolve Look Design Plugin

Cullen Kelly is about to release a new Resolve look design plugin, Contour. Kelly writes:

Contour is built with studio-grade color science that has been battle-tested by some of our industry’s top colorists and post facilities.

It’s all of my 15 years of color science and look development knowledge put into 5 simple modules anyone can use to create a professional-grade look that looks beautiful and won’t break — all at the speed of creative inspiration.

Forget the back and forth of tweaking tools in Resolve or piecing together a bunch of different plugins to get the custom look you’re after or to make your client happy.

With Contour you can create a look that’s custom to your footage and looks beautiful in minutes (I’ll show you exactly how to do this in the look design course you’ll get to attend for free.)

Also, Contour gives you true creative control, letting you control every part of the look instead of building it using presets like many other plugins.

Now, the way Contour makes all of this possible is very special:

The color science in Contour “listens” to you as you create with it, and does on-the-fly calculations to modify how the sliders work in real time. 

This makes sure you get the most beautiful version of the specific look you’re creating quickly, and without any worries of your image breaking.

It’s like having your own color science team working with you on every project, just like Hollywood colorists do.

And because you can trust Contour to never break your image, this saves you from spending up to 2, 3, 4 hours of bouncing between images testing and tweaking as you build.

It also saves you from breaking your clients’ images right before their eyes during a grading session, or giving a DP a show LUT that breaks on set — yikes.

Next, the speed Contour gives you is a real game-changer; it lets you create more, and show off your full potential on every grade.

It lets you do better work on every job and deliver more projects worthy of your reel and your Instagram, getting you more attention and making you more hire-able with better and better projects to work on. 

It also helps you make more money by getting paid the same rate for less hours of work while you have more time for your partner, kids, or friends.

It also means more time for wearing your other filmmaking hats as cinematographer, director, writer, or producer, and gives you more time for your own film projects.

Put simply… 

Contour‘s speed and unique color science makes it like having your own color science team when you color grade, just like Hollywood’s biggest colorists, all in the form of an easy-to-use plugin.

You say what you want (via the slider controls), and Contour, AKA your new color science team, chooses the best functions to get your specific look while ensuring nothing breaks.

In fact, Contour is so easy to use you could craft a beautiful look without knowing anything about look design.

But the more you do know about look design, well, then there’s no limit to what you can create.
