A film-derived look. Multiple camera pipelines. One simple workflow.

Odyssey 65 is an original digital film look inspired by the large-format film pipeline and elemental colour world of Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey.

The look begins with a custom Cineon film-emulation foundation, then introduces original colour decisions built around pale landscapes, steel-blue environments, weathered earth tones, controlled highlights, and warm human detail.

The result is a distinctive film-derived starting point for modern digital footage, rather than a simple ancient-world colour filter.

The DCTL brings the input transform and complete Odyssey 65 look together in one Resolve effect. Select the profile entering the node, then adjust Look Strength to suit the footage.

Instead of selecting separate camera-specific LUT files or manually combining a technical transform with a creative LUT, the DCTL normalizes the selected input before applying the finished look—all inside a single node.

Built from a film response, not only a colour palette

Odyssey 65 was developed using custom Offwhitecolor film-stock profiles and a Cineon-based negative emulation.

The underlying film response was informed partly by photographed colour-chart references and partly by published technical film data. These sources were used to shape the tonal response and colour relationships beneath the finished look.

Original colour decisions were then added to control the relationship between bleached earth, cooler environments, protected skin tones, and selective warmth.

It is not an exact reproduction of the film’s private negative, laboratory, or final grading pipeline. It is an independently developed digital film look inspired by its large-format film language.

What you will notice

  • Denser, more substantial midtones
  • Controlled highlights in hard daylight and reflective environments
  • Pale sand, stone, and earth tones without a heavy sepia wash
  • Steel-blue separation through water, skies, and cooler shadows
  • Warm skin, firelight, and bronze held apart from the surrounding palette
  • Restrained saturation with clear colour separation
  • A grounded image that works across wide landscapes and close human detail

Adjustable Look Strength

Look Strength blends between a neutral Rec.709 conversion and the complete Odyssey 65 look.

  • 0% — Neutral Rec.709 Gamma 2.4 output
  • 100% — The complete Odyssey 65 look
  • Anything in between — A controlled balance tailored to your footage

Simple one-node workflow

  1. Balance exposure and white balance before the DCTL.
  2. Select the correct input profile.
  3. Adjust Look Strength.
  4. Apply any final shot matching or finishing adjustments after the look.

The DCTL produces a finished SDR Rec.709 Gamma 2.4 image. No additional Rec.709 output transform should be placed after it.

Best suited for

  • Narrative, historical, and myth-inspired filmmaking
  • Coastal landscapes, beaches, mountains, and exposed natural environments
  • Stone architecture, weathered locations, and practical sets
  • Images combining warm skin with cooler water, skies, or shadows
  • Travel, documentary, fashion, and editorial work
  • Natural daylight, overcast exteriors, and firelit scenes

FAQ

Do I need DaVinci Resolve Studio?

Yes. This DCTL requires DaVinci Resolve Studio and is not supported in the free version of Resolve.

What is included?

You receive one Odyssey 65 DCTL containing the integrated Odyssey 65 look, built-in input transforms, and adjustable Look Strength. No separate .cube LUTs are included.

Does the DCTL replace a Color Space Transform?

Yes. Select the exact camera profile or working colour space entering the node. The DCTL handles the input transform and produces a finished SDR Rec.709 Gamma 2.4 image.

Where should I place the DCTL in my node tree?

Correct exposure and white balance before the DCTL. Apply any final shot matching or finishing adjustments after it. Do not add another Rec.709 output transform after the DCTL.

Can I adjust the intensity of the look?

Yes. Look Strength blends between a neutral Rec.709 Gamma 2.4 conversion at 0% and the complete Odyssey 65 look at 100%.

Can I use it with Rec.709 footage?

Yes. Select Rec.709 Gamma 2.4 as the input profile. Original log or scene-referred footage provides more grading latitude and the most accurate colour response.

Does Odyssey 65 recreate the IMAX format?

No. A DCTL cannot reproduce IMAX resolution, negative size, lens behaviour, depth, grain structure, or film projection. Odyssey 65 recreates selected tonal and colour characteristics associated with a large-format film-origin workflow.

Is this the exact grade used on The Odyssey?

No. Odyssey 65 is an independently developed Offwhitecolor product. It is not affiliated with, licensed by, or endorsed by Christopher Nolan, Universal Pictures, Syncopy, IMAX, Kodak, or the filmmakers.
