Why we like it

LayerLUT Exporter earns its place in the aescripts library for a focused job: generating LUTs out of any After Effects layer, with support reaching back through many older CC releases.

What is LayerLUT Exporter?

LayerLUT Exporter is a script for After Effects from NT Productions that exports LUTs from any layer in a composition. It handles a focused task: generating a LUT from any layer you choose in your project.

Compatibility spans a broad list of After Effects releases, covering the 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021 and 2020 versions along with CC 2019, CC 2018, CC 2017, CC 2015.3, CC 2015, CC 2014 and CC. That reach makes it usable across both current installations and older setups still in production.

The current release is version 1.1, published on September 29, 2025. This update fixed a major bug that affected exporting a LUT without full resolution. A demo video is also available for those who want to see it before installing.
