Cinematic Looks video — FAQs
What's the difference from Film & Narrative?
Film & Narrative is about story structure; Cinematic Looks is about a consistent visual aesthetic (grade, light, texture) applied across the whole video.
Will the look stay consistent?
Yes — the chosen look is locked across every scene so the video feels like one cohesive piece.
Can I apply a look to my product?
Absolutely — these styles work on products, people, or places; the aesthetic is applied on top of your subject.
