When your workflow needs more.
An established color management system is a dependable starting point. Developing a particular appearance can demand more flexibility. Cine IS lets you extend your pipeline with custom transforms and appearance processing.
iNode / Interpret your source.
Bring footage into your working space. iNode handles input transforms, supporting camera colour spaces and custom Input Device Transforms (IDTs).
xNode / Connect your working spaces.
Convert between colour spaces and introduce custom image-processing profiles. Move into and out of Cine IS as your workflow requires.
oNode / Shape the output.
Prepare the image for a display while incorporating film emulation, grain and spatial modulation. Output transformation and appearance processing can form one managed pipeline.
A working space for cinematic appearance.
JPCINE3 supports wide dynamic-range processing with shadow encoding extending to eight stops below middle grey. It is designed to support subtle tonal differences, film emulation, grain and spatial processing.
Fit it into the way you work.
Integrate with ACES, DaVinci Color Management and other managed colour spaces. Transition into Cine IS for a particular stage and return to your required working space.
All three plug-ins are included; you can use each independently.
Build your own transforms.
Author custom IDTs, ODTs and xNode profiles through the dedicated tool inside Colourlab Ai. A standalone authoring tool is planned.
Ready for AI control.
Cine IS supports machine-driven operation through a compatible connection. A language model can operate exposed controls, enabling prompted and automated workflows.
The engine connecting Colourlab.
Cine IS is the image-processing foundation inside Colourlab Ai, Astra and Look Designer. The external plug-ins bring that foundation into your Resolve node structures.
