About Warping Wheels 3

Warping Wheels 3 from Picture Instruments adds color wheels with built‑in skin tone protection to After Effects and Premiere Pro. Dedicated wheels adjust skin tones, sky blues, plant greens, and film contrast, allowing grading directly within the editing application without a round‑trip workflow. The Look Generator creates starter looks with one click, and cross‑host presets and LUT export let those looks move between compatible applications. Version 3.1.0 (August 2023) introduced Apple Silicon support for After Effects and Premiere Pro, FxPlug4 support for Final Cut Pro X, Retina scaling on Windows, and workflow features such as undo/redo, before/after comparison, one‑button reset, and closing without applying. Compatibility spans Adobe releases from CS6 through 2020.
