Overview

Large-format film colour with dense tonality, steel-blue environments and restrained warmth.

An original digital film stock inspired by the large-format film language of Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey. Dense midtones, pale earth and stone, steel-blue water and sky, and warm skin held apart from it all. Built on a Cineon film-emulation foundation, then designed as a finished look for your own log footage.

What you will notice

  • Denser, more substantial midtones.
  • Controlled highlights in hard daylight and reflective environments.
  • Pale sand, stone and earth without a heavy sepia wash.
  • Steel-blue separation in water, skies and cooler shadows.
  • Warm skin, firelight and bronze held apart from the surrounding palette.
  • Restrained saturation with clear colour separation.

How to use it

  1. Choose the version for your camera. Sony S-Log3, ARRI LogC3 or LogC4, Canon Log 2, RED IPP2, DJI D-Log M (Osmo Pocket 3) or Blackmagic Gen 5.
  2. Balance first. Set exposure and white balance on the log footage.
  3. Apply Odyssey 65 as the look stage, then refine its strength and the final contrast for the scene with your software's LUT intensity or node opacity.

LUT or DCTL?

The LUT works in DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, CapCut Desktop and any software that reads .cube files. Grading in DaVinci Resolve Studio? The Odyssey 65 DCTL puts the input transform and the look in one node, with a Look Strength slider.

How it was developed

Odyssey 65 is built on custom Offwhitecolor film-stock profiles and a Cineon-based negative emulation, informed by photographed colour-chart references and published technical film data. Original colour decisions on top of that create the Odyssey 65 palette: bleached earth, cooler environments, protected skin and selective warmth.

It is an independently developed look inspired by the film's large-format colour language, not the film's own negative, laboratory or grading pipeline.

Questions

Before you buy.

Something else? Ask the colorist.

Which version should I choose?

Choose the version that matches the log profile you shot in: Sony S-Log3, ARRI LogC3, ARRI LogC4, Canon Log 2, RED IPP2, DJI D-Log M (Osmo Pocket 3) or Blackmagic Gen 5. Each file only works on its own input.

Does it work in Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro or CapCut?

Yes. The .cube files work in DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, After Effects, CapCut Desktop and other software with LUT support.

Do I apply it to log or to Rec.709 footage?

To log footage in the matching profile, after basic exposure and white balance. Do not apply it to footage that has already been converted to Rec.709.

Can I make the look stronger or weaker?

Yes. Use your software's LUT intensity or the node opacity. The DCTL version has a dedicated Look Strength slider.

Is it a film emulation?

Partly. Odyssey 65 is built on a genuine Cineon film-emulation stage, informed by photographed colour charts and published film data, with an original colour design on top. It does not claim to reproduce one specific named film stock.

Is this the official or exact grade of The Odyssey?

No. Odyssey 65 is independently developed by Offwhitecolor, by studying the visible image language of the film. It is not affiliated with, licensed by or endorsed by Christopher Nolan, Universal Pictures, Syncopy, IMAX, Kodak or the filmmakers.

Does it recreate the IMAX format?

No. A LUT cannot reproduce IMAX resolution, negative size, lens behaviour, depth of field, grain or projection. Odyssey 65 works on colour and tone.
