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.
