12K CINEMATIC COLOR PIPELINE

The PRIMEGRADE 12K Cinematic Color Pipeline  is a professional, broadcast-safe, all-in-one DCTL for DaVinci Resolve — engineered to handle the complete color grading workflow in a single node, from log decode and color space transform to tone mapping, creative looks, and final delivery output. It supports 19 camera log formats, 28 gamut-to-gamut transforms, 10 target delivery gamuts, and 23 baked film stocks — all without requiring any external LUT files, operating at full 32-bit floating-point GPU precision. Built on ACES II parametric tone science, Industry Standard white balance, Perceptual saturation, and  5-zone exposures , it combines industry-standard color science with a powerful creative look engine featuring over 170 cinematic looks across 8 independent stacking systems. The pipeline includes a Skin Tone Guardian, Mood Engine, Scene Mode, Director Signature profiles, Reference Match to 10 iconic films, and a Global Cinema Engine spanning 29 regional, 8 era, and 8 delivery preset axes — all blending additively without ever overwriting the base grade. Every slider is clamped to broadcast-legal safe ranges, all 19 log curves are verified against official manufacturer white papers, and the tool is fully GPU-efficient — making it equally at home on 12K cinema productions, wedding films, commercials, and broadcast deliveries.
