The way to switch it off is to right-click the imported master clip(s) and go "Remove Masterclip Effects" , the cause of the baked-in look.
If so, can someone please explain, as I get nowhere trying to right click the imported master clip as I do not see such option.
In your first post (before this one) refering to LogC Amira, Mark links to another post with three other methods.
one method (Marks) is to create a project in Premiere CC 7.x and import that into Premiere 8.x
another method (character dude) is to XML the project to a new project
and the third method (noclue41) is to ingest the footage into Prelude CC 2014, then send to Premiere
----------------------------------------------------
So, not having PP 7.x anymore, and not knowing XML, I installed Prelude, did the three updates, ingested a bmpcc dng clip, sent to Premiere and still appears to be the same as ever.
I am trying to get Premiere to view the clip the same as what SpeedGrade would see it if opened without direct link from Premiere.
And, how to you tell what exact LUT Premiere is automatically applying to the clip anyway?
