Q: Keyframes with Lookup node ?

Can you add keyframes using the Lookup node ? I am trying to color correct a shot with moving lights.

    No, you can't. In the curve interface, the x scale is input color value,
    not time. There's no way to load the values into the Curve Editor.
    So they look like keyframes, but they're not.

    I am trying to color correct a shot with moving lights.


    Try using the ColorMatch node. For example, if there's a white
    object in the shot, you can leave highDest at white, and sample
    the object at various times using the highSource swatch.

    I sometimes find it easier with a situation like that to create a bunch of different CC setups(lookups, etc) and mix between them instead of animating the values on a node.
