A custom VAE for LTX-Video 2.3 that bakes a cinematic color grade directly into the decoder. 
It applies **a subtle, darker greenish-teal tint** to the output, evoking a soft, cinematic **"The Matrix" like aesthetic**. 
Because the color grade is baked into the VAE weights, it **eliminates** the need for **post-processing** color correction, giving you the final cinematic look straight out of generation.
