Premiere has declicker and decrackler but these are more for restoration than full blown repair.
What do you mean by a vocal pop, like a plosive “P” sound into the mic?

I have more faith in Blu-Ray disc than other optical media for two reasons: They have an anti-scratch coating and their dyes are metal-based and not organic so they don’t suffer from as much disc/dye rot, or so I’ve been lead to believe. You may, as a good practice, want to refresh your discs every 2-3 years by doing a full verified copy, but it’s not a mountainous task.

Correct, it’ll be a multilayer/multimask thing, but they can all move in unison thanks to the object tracking… any other keyframe animation for size is easy.

Did you export out an MP4 file by chance? That particular format is notorious for audio drift in Quicktime; Quicktime just prefers the MOV container.

https://library.creativecow.net/articles/kramer_andrew/Demon_Face_Warp.php might aid in giving you some foundational knowledge.
Without looking at your footage, I’d track the eyes then mask the color adjustment and parent the adjustment’s movements to the tracking marker.

Dave, I just copy/pasted the link. Creative Cow’s link parsing broke it apparently. Without seeing the image, your assessment is still fair I’d say.

I would also add that LTO isn’t that expensive. The drive itself is an investment ($2,000 for a moderately priced LTO5 drive) but the tapes themselves are slightly cheaper than a similar sized hard drive. After the initial investment, the other issue becomes time: these archives are slow to write and if you ever need to dive into them, they’re slow to read. The nice thing is they are designed for worry free archiving (anecdotal evidence points to a shelf life of 5-10 years.)
LTO has been around over a decade and is designed that current drives must read two generations backwards so there is some safety within the technology that is implemented.

Is the camera static and do you have any clean frames of the background? You might be able to pull a difference matte and use that for the brunt attack, but it will take rotoscoping… a lot of rotoscoping.
Keyers like Keylight don’t do well with luma keys, they’re designed to work from the differences in saturation in each color channel. Primatte is similar, but it uses a weighted color matrix.
