Free Drone LUTs
This bundle of free drone LUTs is designed to make the colors in your aerial videos more vivid, add depth to the shadows, increase the saturation, and apply a bit of subtle toning that fits the specific scene you’re editing.

Each drone LUT from this collection is saved in .cube format, which makes them compatible with programs like Sony Vegas, Adobe Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, After Effects, and so on. Created with aerial videography in mind, these color-grading tools excel at outdoor videos that feature vast landscapes, beautiful skylines, lush forest environments, beachside activities, and urban architecture.
