Question

How to get a list of which clips have an input LUT on them on the entire timeline?

I have a feature film and noticed, right in the coloring stage, that some of the clips throughout the timeline have an input LUT that Premiere automatically assigned. 

 

How can I easily get a list of all the clips with the input LUT and then clear the LUT on them? 

 

I'm sending strips of the timeline to the colorist, and it takes a long time to render and then upload to a transfer portal. For the sake of time, I was hoping to identify which strips have the problem, quickly, and then only have to render/upload those strips rather than ALL of the strips.

They will probably be from specific cameras, so you'll need to create a search bin by camera/media in use.

 

I know from my limited experience in this, it will nearly always be a Red or Arri, or a few Sony cameras. And even with those, typically with certain outputs. Say their RAW or particular log forms. While other outputs from the same camera will not include the LUT.

 

It's a fun thing to sort but search bins can help at least.

I think that's going to have to be it. It's the ARRI footage that's doing it, not the RED. 

I tried to use the metadata in the project panel for LUT, LUT1, and LUT2, but nothing populated.

Yea ... this type of organizational morass is what keeps assistant editors and assistant colorists in employment, is what I'm told. Sigh.
