- A CDL file is an ASC Color Decision List: XML that pairs shots with ASC CDL colour corrections (slope, offset, power, saturation), used to carry grades between editing and colour grading applications.
- A CLF file is a colour transform in the Academy/ASC Common LUT Format (SMPTE ST 2136-10): XML that chains 1D and 3D lookup tables, matrices, ranges and ASC CDL steps. ACES and OpenColorIO pipelines use it.
