What this look does
Low saturation, high contrast and a slightly dim, screened quality that comes from the film's ruled colour filter stripes. Colours are muted and blues dominate.

About Polaroid Polachrome
Polachrome used a microscopic pattern of red, green and blue stripes rather than dye layers — the same additive principle as Autochrome, eighty years later. The resulting texture is unlike any other film here.
Included renderings
In Filmgrid each rendering carries its own name. The exposure and temperature labels describe how it differs from the base look.

How to use this LUT
The download is a standard .cube 3D LUT, so it loads in almost anything: Lightroom Classic (Profile → Browse), Photoshop (Color Lookup adjustment layer), Premiere Pro (Lumetri → Creative), DaVinci Resolve (LUTs panel), Final Cut Pro (Custom LUT effect), Affinity Photo, Capture One and OBS. See the step-by-step guide if you have not loaded one before.
If you only want the finished picture, skip the download: open the tool, drop a photo in and export at full resolution. Nothing leaves your device.
