dirty lens
I was shooting in a skateboard park and there is what appears to be cotton like thread on my images from my lens cloth. Is it possible to remove it from the sequences in either final cut pro or color? How would I do that?
Thanks! -

Thanks for getting back to me. I’m not resolved to using the wrong tools, I am pretty new at this so if you have any advice as far as After Effects is concerned, it would be really helpful.
Thanks. -
I added some suggestions on the AE forum for potential solutions that don’t require reshooting.
But you should probably reshoot…

In Shake you would track the thread, then attach the track to a paint stroke to clone out the thread. that plus a lot of frame by frame adjusting.
You might want to take a look at some of the Imagineer products to fix something like this.

Digital Heaven has a plug-in for fixing bad pixels, and another one that will fix a drop-outs and head-switching noise bars by copy-pasting good pixels from fields ahead of/behind the bad bit. Worth watching their demo. Perhaps one of these would fix it for you with less effort, but unless the tricks are simply impossible to re-shoot, yeah, go do it over is probably the best answer.
