This is fantastic. You were the only person I've ever seen explain the grid system of 3D Luts. Very well explained video. Bravo.

This was explained so well. LOL. I care much more about this subject than I should after hearing this explanation. For real tho, this explanation really sparked my curiosity about this subject, and I didn't really believe that was possible. Good work. Good teaching.

[randyranson]

I want to thank you and say you really are good at teaching intricate subjects quite simply and understandable. Great lesson.

[SingleFocusCoaching]

THANK YOU. What a wonderful, understandable, coherant way of explaining what a LUT is. It's so refreshing to watch a vidoe that gets right to the point, completely explains the promised answers and does it with clarity. I can't wait to see the other videos you have created.

As many have already stated, you are a natural at explaining complex information. Well done.

Perfect video, thank you! Short, no intro, great detail and visuals.

[Dartheomus]

Fantastic. Thank you! I'm so glad you pulled it all together with the grid explanation at the end. I was trying to figure this part out with the Canon LUT naming convention.

[RhythmicEye]

Absolutely brilliant explanation. Visual examples are perfect for visually oriented people. BIG THANKS!

[surfyswag]

Detailed answer with great visuals, thank for you not wasting 10 minutes talking!

[jan-hendrikbussmann]

Very good explanation. And I really like the animations you have used and the way you have used them to keep the video interesting and entertaining. After all, how information is presented determines if one will take it to memory after watching.

[RandomPerson-ppti]

Thank you! This was the only video I could find that actually explains how they work clearly.

Perfect came here having seen and used but with little knowledge of how they funtioned . Left knowing why some had failed and produced artifacts .a very low node value was the cause . Thanks a bunch
