CineCut

CineCut turns iPhone and iPad footage into cinematic video, and now edits your photos too.

It is built around real colour grades from photographer Umair Wadood: the same looks behind his Instagram work, calibrated for iPhone HDR footage so the colour you see is the colour you get. Pick a look, fine-tune it, export in full quality.
