Kodak Aerochrome in Filmbox

[isaacnhms]

Hi Filmbox team,

First of all, great work on Filmbox Looks, it has become a big part of my grading workflow.

I’d love to suggest adding a Kodak Aerochrome Look. Its distinctive aesthetic, infrared reds/magentas, cyan skies, strong contrast, and surreal color separation, would be a unique and compelling addition to the existing Looks, maybe in the Extreme family.

I think this kind of Look would fit very naturally within Filmbox’s creative palette.

Thanks for considering, and keep up the great work.

Best,
Isaac

Hey, Aerochrome would be cool, we actually have some Aerochrome we might profile some day but an Aerochrome sim could only be used on a digital camera that has been physically modified to shoot infrared. The closest you are going to get with a normal sensor is to use something like the "Purple XR" profile that's already offered in Filmbox Pro under C41 Stylized (which also drives the "Purple" preset in Filmbox looks)

Thanks a lot for the explanation, and for taking the time to reply, really appreciated.

That makes total sense regarding the infrared limitation. I’d absolutely love to see an Aerochrome profile in action someday if you ever end up profiling it.

Thanks again to you and the team for the great work.
