Gladiator Look Power Grade (Cold)

This power Grade can be imported into Davinci Resolve to achieve a similar look to the film 'Gladiator'.

The Power Grade uses the built-in grain effect from Davinci Resolve, so non-studio owners will have to use a grain overlay or another plugin that contains a grain effect.

When applying this power grade to footage, you may find it sometimes unbalanced as all footage doesn't have the same exposure or contrast. To fix this, it would be best to configure a node by adjusting the LGG until you find it balanced and accurate to the film's 'look'.

As a disclaimer, this is a power grade that is supposed to be utilised as a base and not something that should be slapped onto footage in hopes of it getting the same aesthetics as 'Gladiator'.

For the installation of this power grade to operate correctly, the film stock & print LUT provided must be put in the LUT folder in Davinci Resolve.
