LiveGrade Pro is a colour and look management system for the film set. It currently supports two grading modes: "Alexa Looks" and "CDL Grade". The look of the image from the set camera is intended to be editable with LiveGrade Pro via the camera’s SDI signal, and an export of CDL, LUT and Alexa Look files is intended to be possible for the subsequent phase of post-production. LiveGrade Pro is also said to offer automatic ASC CDL exchange with Codex recorders. On the hardware side, according to Pomfort, the live grading tool supports Blackmagic Design HDLink and Pandora’s Pluto.
