ARRI Meta Extract
ARRI's digital cameras can acquire metadata during recording. Metadata not only describes the
file itself but can transport other information like details on the camera settings, sensor speed or a
look file. These static types of metadata can be combined with dynamic metadata where the values
change while shooting – like lens data information from the Lens Data System. The complete metadata
information is stored in ALEXA or AMIRA output formats: ARRIRAW, MXF/ARRIRAW, ProRes and
DNxHD. Also, the sidecar files *.ale and *.xml carry some of that information. ARRI Meta Extract
is available as a GUI (graphical user interface) for Mac OS X, Windows x64, Ubuntu or as CMD
(command line) application for Mac OS X, Windows x64, Cent OS, Ubuntu and SLES.

ARRI Color Tool
ARRI Color Tool is a free utility for creating the new ARRI Look File 2 for ALEXA LF, ALEXA SXT,
ALEXA 65, ALEXA Mini, ALEXA Mini LF and AMIRA cameras. You can use the ARRI Color Tool to
create a completely new look or modify an existing look based on Log C Apple ProRes clips or Log C
*.dpx grabs from all ARRI cameras. Some 3rd party post processing tools do not support ALF-2 looks
natively. ACT allows one to export 3D LUTs in order to be compatible with these tools. ACT is available
for Mac OS X and Windows x64.
