    Hi, I’m looking for ideas on how to best do dustbusting. I’m using a AJA Kono and the footage is 4:4:4 1080 23.97psf. From Final Cut I use Apple Color for grading, But I’d like to do the dustbusting before the grade and would like to keep rendering to a minimum to save drive space. Any thoughts would be great. Thanks.

    I’m not sure how you’re going to avoid rendering by performing these operations. I don’t know what compositing app you’re using, but I’m familiar with Shake in which you have to render out your Shake scripts (using FileOut nodes) no matter what and of course you’d have to render out your Color projects. In Shake you could do both your dustbusting and color grading within the app which would save one step.

    You could also use Motion, After Effects, even Photoshop for dust busting. Or you could export an image sequence and use Cinepaint.
