You should start with a general search, Googling what you’re trying to find, rather than starting with specific sources. I found this just by Googling “Cleaning mic pops in Audition” – it was the first result:

There’s a ghost of a chance that you might be able to do it using Secondary Color Correction. Colorista (Red Giant) and Speedgrade come to mind (even Premiere Pro has some secondary color correction capabilities). This would have been a lot easier if the cup had not been black ceramic – with red or yellow, the job would be much easier. But look up some tutorials on secondary color correction and give them a shot. It’s basically a matter of picking the color range you want to change, and then using hue, saturation, and brightness values to contol where the color shift occurs. Good luck!

Yes…and the color of the flames can be changed via an iPhone app.

You’re on the right track, I’d say. File and project naming and folder structure are the keys to finding archived projects. The rest is just faster ways of finding things when the first steps are less than ideal.

One of the pitfalls I’ve run into with Bridge is that not all file formats will take Metadata entry. If I remember correctly, TIFF files will not take it, although .jpg and .png files will. You will also run into the occasional burp in which when you right-click a file which normally takes Metadata, the “File Info” selection (which you would use to enter Metadata) is missing from the drop down. You can sometimes fix this by looking further up the menu for “Purge Cache for Selection”. Once you select this, it will purge the cache, and then the “File Info” choice will appear, allowing you to enter custom Metadata.
On the good side, you can also create custom Metadata templates, which would allow you to embed things such as copyright information, without typing it repetitively. I can’t really think of many things I don’t like about Bridge, but one of the amazing things about it is the ability to find the AE project which created your output file right in the Metadata, if you know where to look. Here’s a blog post from my website which walks you through the process:

I’m sure you’ll find things you don’t like about Bridge, but the ability to tag with keywords, create custom notes right in the project files, and all sorts of other useful things, far outweighs the few negatives you’ll run across.

As far as Bridge goes, I’ve been using it for years, first as art director at a broadcast TV facility, where I successfully managed upwards of 300,000 files for our on-air News, Promotions, and Commercial Production departments, and now as a freelancer, doing everything from designing websites to creating technical animations showing how gel permeation chromatography works. Here’s a link to an article I wrote for the COW a few years ago – it is still relevant:

Hi Niclas –
I’m a one man shop, so I have not done this, but here’s a link to an in-depth article on the workflow used for Deadpool:

I can’t give you advice on whether or not you should do it, but here’s a pretty good walk through of the process of doing it:

It shows a long form project, so this would be about as complex as you might get.

Yes, certainly…an opposing opinion on a bag design certainly makes sense to me…

I think you’re thinking of the Roto Brush – it could certainly help you in the process:

What you’d most likely do is to create a copy of the layer you want to roto, then use the Roto Brush, and possibly one of the Matte tools and possibly additional mattes to help create the drawing.
