“Lustre is so incredibly outdated, it’s almost funny :)”
When I first read that, I laughed…then I investigated the source of such a strong opinion. Then, I considered that person’s experience, location, and knowledge of the industry – in Hollywood, where the post facilities for the biggest movies on the planet are still based.
Then I took that comment with a grain of salt.
The best colorists on the planet use Lustre, for a reason. Fact is, if you want to be one of them, you better learn ALL the tools. I go from studio to studio. Some use Resolve, some use Lustre. When I have my choice, I use Resolve – but if you think you can be a top notch colorist and only know one tool, you’re wrong.
