Autodesk Lustre - What's New

What's New

With enhancements to tools, performance, and workflow, the Autodesk® Lustre® 2009 color-grading management software advances facility creativity and productivity.

Combining enhanced creative tools, scalable performance, and efficient workflow, Lustre 2009 gives you real-time tools to explore highly creative color looks for film or video at many points in the post-production process. Ultimately, Lustre allows the colorist to focus on creating breathtaking results.

Stereoscopic 3D
The world's leading film production companies are investing in 3D stereoscopic cinema for animated computer graphics (CG) and visual-effects-intensive movies. Autodesk designs software to empower the stereo pipeline, from 3D to 2D compositing, and color grading. Lustre 2009 offers colorists automated stereoscopic tools that speed up the process of grading, previewing, and rendering left- and right-eye media.

High-Quality Color Isolation
The Autodesk Diamond Keyer from our visual effects software has been integrated into Lustre. The Diamond Keyer is an intuitive tool for precise color isolation. As a colorist, you can refine your key using the mouse or the control surface.

Project and User Management
Lustre 2009 introduces a centralized way of configuring and managing your projects. A colorist now signs on with a specific user identification, defines the project, and sets the user-specific preferences in the graphical user interface (GUI). Projects and user profiles are managed from a single location in the GUI without complex setups. In addition, many configuration attributes can now easily be configured from within the Lustre GUI, providing for more efficient, time-saving workflows. Lustre can now save the preferences of each colorist for each project at the end of each work session. When a colorist returns to a project, identifies himself/herself as the user, and identifies the desired project, the user's most recent settings for that project are automatically loaded.
