Filters
Filters are applied to photos in the capture/selection flow. You manage them from Dashboard → Filters: list view and a per-filter editor.
Two Filter Systems (LUT vs Legacy/Manual)
- LUT (look-up table) — Advanced color grading; you import or create LUT-based filters. Best for consistent, professional looks.
- Legacy/manual — Adjustments such as brightness, contrast, saturation, and temperature. Backward compatible with existing setups.
You can use one system or both in your projects.
LUT Import Workflow
- Go to Dashboard → Filters.
- Create a new filter and choose LUT (or open an existing LUT filter).
- Upload or configure the LUT data; set name and category.
- Set public/active so the filter is available when configuring projects.
- Assign the filter in the project so it appears in the app flow.
Legacy/Manual Workflow (Backward Compatible)
- Go to Dashboard → Filters.
- Add or open a filter that uses manual adjustments (brightness, contrast, saturation, temperature).
- Configure parameters; set public/active as needed.
- Assign in the project configuration so it appears in the app.
Preview Consistency (Platform vs App)
- Dashboard previews are rendered in the browser and may differ from the app (which uses the actual camera and print pipeline). For the final look, do a test capture and print from the Photobooth App.
Recommended Approach (When to Use Which)
- Use LUT when you want consistent color grading and have LUT assets.
- Use legacy/manual when you prefer simple sliders or need backward compatibility with existing filters.
- You can mix both: assign both LUT and manual filters to a project; the app shows them according to project settings.
