Based on the LUT & ART Files | Sony Cine I have created a minimal OCIO config of SONY VENICE for full CG projects. This is the SONY VENICE 2 Workflow in its most minimalistic and simple form:
- Inputs (textures) are in "linear"
- Rendering and Nuke working space are also in "linear"
- View Transform is for Rec.1886 display
There is no need to go wide gamut or do anything complex to craft beautiful images. Enjoy!
Original files (encoded in "linear-AP0") are available here.
- Reference color space is XYZ which is the base of all colourimetry
- All matrixes have been generated using colour-science with CAT02
- "linear" stands for "linear_bt.709"
- "cineonlog_rec709" can be used for a matte-painting workflow in Photoshop
- "slog3_sgamut3cine" is the shaper space. It can be used for color timing and some operations (such as sharpen)
- Substance_painter roles were set following this page
- No inverse of the View Transform has been provided
- One may easily add several colorspaces or displays for HDR output if needed (such as "Rec2020_D65_PQ")
- 36 looks from the LUT & ART Files | Sony Cine have been added to the config
- BUT each of them has been merged with the SONY VENICE View in a single LUT
- I have set the "SONY VENICE High Contrast" to be the default View in the config
- To use one a different look, you need to switch it with the one I set by default. Like this for instance:
active_views: [SONY VENICE DD01 Classic FPE, Un-tone-mapped, Log, Raw]
