Custom LUT Creation for Asset Management

Why Asset Management Needs Custom LUT Creation

In the Asset Management sector, professional video content has become essential for standing out in a competitive market. Whether you need promotional material, training content, or brand storytelling, Custom LUT Creation delivers measurable results that transform how asset management professionals communicate with their audience.

Specific Challenges for Asset Management

Asset management firms operate under strict regulatory constraints that directly impact video production. Every claim about performance, risk, or strategy must be reviewed by compliance before publication, adding 1-3 weeks to delivery timelines. Video content falls into two categories: regulated materials (fund presentations, market outlooks) that require legal disclaimers and precise language, and softer content (team introductions, office culture, ESG commitments) with more creative freedom. Distribution is narrow — LinkedIn, the firm's website, and institutional investor portals — because public advertising of financial products is restricted in most European markets. The on-camera talent is typically portfolio managers and analysts who need coaching to communicate complex ideas simply. Budgets range from 3,000 to 15,000 euros per video, with quarterly market update series being the most common recurring format.

Video Challenges in Asset Management

Humanizing the Corporate Brand

72% of job seekers research company culture before applying. Internal communication videos reduce misunderstanding by 50% compared to email alone. Yet many corporations struggle to produce video that feels authentic rather than corporate and stiff.

From employer branding to annual reports, executive communications to training modules, corporate video must balance professionalism with relatability. The challenge is creating content that employees and stakeholders actually want to watch.

Success Stories & Case Studies

Our Custom LUT Creation Process

Color Grading Process

1. Color Analysis: We review all footage, identify exposure/white balance issues, and establish the target look with mood references and LUT exploration.

2. Primary Correction: Exposure normalization, white balance correction, and overall color balance across all shots for consistency.

3. Creative Grade: Scene-by-scene color grading to achieve the desired mood, with custom power windows, secondary corrections, and film emulation.

4. Final QC: Broadcast compliance check (if needed), HDR/SDR delivery, and export of custom LUTs for future use.

What Makes Custom LUT Creation Unique

LUT creation builds a custom color lookup table that encodes your signature visual style into a reusable file — applicable in-camera, in editing software, or on set via a monitor. We design the LUT based on your reference images, brand colors, and target aesthetic, testing it across diverse skin tones, lighting conditions, and exposure ranges to ensure it holds up in real-world use. We deliver in .cube format (compatible with DaVinci Resolve, Premiere, Final Cut, and most cinema cameras) in both 33-point and 65-point resolutions. Turnaround is 3-5 business days. This is ideal for brands, creators, and DPs who want consistent color across shoots without re-grading every project.
