Its like baking a cake.

Ingredients (serves many)

Graded DPX files
Print Emulation LUT
RGB-XYZ transform
Projection Aperture Extraction Tool (looks like a rectangular pastry  
cutter)
Rolling Pin
Baking Tray
Renderfarm (preheated to 180 degrees C)

1. Take Print Emulation LUT
2. Mix in a bowl (until thickened) with RGB-XYZ transform and allow  
to stand
3. Take Graded DPX files
4. Apply Mixed Print Emulation LUT and RGB XYZ transform to Graded  
DPX files
5. Take each image file and cut out the middle using the Pastry  
Cutter Thing and set aside
6. When done use the rolling pin to stretch each image to fit desired  
DCI aspect ratio.
7. Grease the baking tray with Lard, put the image files on
8. Depending on your renderfarm, bake until golden brown 16 Bit TIFFs  
are delivered.

I hope this clears things up.

Kind Regards,
