We’ll cover:
✅ Building a professional CST workflow (input/output color space)
✅ Balancing and shaping contrast for that filmic S-curve
✅ Refining skin tones with precision
✅ Enhancing the look with split toning, glow, halation & bloom
✅ Using LUTs as a film print foundation — no heavy plugins required
