Drone LUT & Lightroom preset

Metropolitan

Metropolitan mutes the city and lets the lights glow. Concrete and streets turn cool and dark while windows and street lamps stay golden, for architecture and urban grids with an editorial feel.

Questions

What does the Metropolitan LUT look like?

Muted urban tones with golden light for architecture and street grids. See the before and after examples on this page.

Does Metropolitan work on my drone footage?

Yes. It works on Normal (Rec.709) footage from any drone or camera. If you shot in a log profile such as D-Log or D-Log M, convert it to Rec.709 first, then apply Metropolitan.

Is Metropolitan a LUT or a Lightroom preset?

Both. The Cinematic bundle includes Metropolitan as .cube and .3dl LUTs for video editors and as Lightroom presets (.xmp, .lrtemplate, .dng) for photos, in 10 variations.
