# In Living Color

## An optimized color pipeline lets you try looks with ease.

## Apply a library of LUTs in real-time to any video.

## LUTs embedded in the video file are automatically applied (if you want).

**High bit depth. ** 10, 12, 16-bit? Screen always uses the highest bit depth possible for your video.

**Color sampler. ** Sample the RGB values of any pixel in their native bit depth.

**Color management. ** Bypass color management completely, or view with standard color spaces. Improved color accuracy over QuickTime Player X.

**Apply LUTs. ** Any LUT format supported by [Lattice](https://videovillage.com/lattice) can be applied in Screen.

**LUT library. ** Link to a folder structure with LUTs, or share your DaVinci Resolve LUT folder.

**Gamma & exposure. ** Control gamma and exposure in real time, before or after the LUT.

**Channel viewer. ** Isolate a single channel of the video, including alpha if present.

**HDR. ** Leverage macOS system tonemapping for Pro Display XDR and other EDR displays.

**Embed color space. ** Embed the color space of the video into the image.

**Customizable file types. ** Capture a frame directly to HEIF, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, or OpenEXR.

**High bit depth and alpha. ** Export high bit depth (integer or float) image data and optionally preserve the alpha channel.
