ARRI Film Lab is a professional-grade plugin that faithfully recreates the timeless aesthetics of analog film. Powered by ARRI’s unrivaled color science and image processing expertise, this tool enables real-time 4K film look emulation.

“It is the first time I’ve seen a film look plugin that really helps create a vintage look on a period drama.”

Stijn van der Weken,

ARRI Film Lab makes digital feel like real film. It’s in credibly easy to use, yet feels like it carries a full color science lab inside — robust and cinematic. The color response is stunningly accurate, skin tones feel alive, shadows stay rich, and the definition… just superb — that crisp, organic detail you only get from true film. Every frame gains volume, giving a balanced and natural sense of depth, where light, color, and texture fall perfectly into place

ARRI Film Lab Features

FIlm Emulation

Drawing on ARRI’s film and digital expertise, ARRI Film Lab provides easy creative control of the grain, color, halation, and gate weave associated with analog film stocks and post processes.

Any Camera

Compatible with RGB images from any camera brought into a LogC4/C3 or Linear AWG4/AWG3 pipeline. Projects must use ARRI color management through to finishing, although ACES support is planned soon.

On-Set Preview (soon)

An upcoming software update for the latest ARRI cameras will enable unique previews of Film Lab settings, allowing filmmakers to see a non-destructive simulation of the intended color and grain attributes on set.

Feature Specs

Complement Your Look

ARRI Film Lab adds a film feel to whatever look (LUT and/or grade) you have developed for your project. Results are consistent even when mixing different cameras.

Film Grain Simulation

Choose from 50D, 200T, or 500T grain profiles to match the texture and depth of classic negative film stocks.

Print and Process Emulation

Recreate iconic film looks with the color characteristics of various print stocks, as well as reversal film and lab processes such as bleach bypass.

Halation Control

Add a realistic glow around highlights and edges, mimicking the red/orange halo effect caused by light reflecting through film layers.

Gate Weave Simulation

Introduce subtle motion artifacts that replicate the slight mechanical jitter sometimes seen in film footage.

No metadata needed

Requires no embedded camera metadata.

Compatibilty

Seamlessly integrates with leading postproduction tools like Resolve, Baselight, Nuke, and more.

Camera-Agnostic Workflows

Real-time 4K processing (requires up-to-date GPU) of RGB images from ARRI and third-party cameras, regardless of acquisition codec or format.
