Cyberpunk Neon LUT — Free Cyan & Magenta Night Look

Cyan and magenta pushed hard against crushed blacks — the neon-soaked night look. The trick is that it only boosts the hues neon actually occupies, so signage and practical lights go electric while the rest of the frame stays dark instead of turning into a uniform purple wash.

What it looks like

Blacks crush deep with a blue-violet cast. Cyans and magentas are boosted well past everything else, so neon, LEDs and reflected light in wet streets separate hard from the background. Highlights roll off so signs glow rather than clip.

What it's good for

• Night city footage — signage, wet asphalt, reflections

• Music videos — especially anything with coloured practicals in shot

• Gaming and tech content — RGB lighting and screen glow

• Sci-fi and stylised narrative — the genre's visual signature

It needs something to work with

This look amplifies colour that is already in the frame. On a grey, evenly lit daytime scene there is no neon to boost and it will just look contrasty and blue. Shoot at night, or light with coloured practicals, and it does the rest.

Make it yours

Load it in the Luttie editor, shift which hues get boosted with HSL secondaries, and export your own .cube.
