September 2008
Autodesk, Inc. announced the Autodesk Lustre 2009 digital color grading system and Autodesk Incinerator 2009, the real-time system accelerator for Lustre. The Lustre system has helped shape the look of hundreds of films and TV series. Lustre 2009 will be showcased at Autodesk during the International Broadcasters Convention 2008 in Amsterdam's RAI Convention Center.
"We are very excited about the powerful functionality Lustre 2009 has to offer," said Stig Gruman, Digital Entertainment Group vice president, Autodesk Media & Entertainment. "Lustre 2009 makes the grading process much more efficient. And for the first time ever, we are simultaneously releasing new versions of Lustre and Incinerator. Now all Lustre customers can take advantage of the latest developments."
Running on a new high-performance platform, Lustre 2009 offers numerous features that improve the color grading workflow, including: stereoscopic grading, intuitive project management, integrated audio input, output and playback, multi-layer timeline shot prioritization, timeline A/C mode sorting, customizable sensitivity settings for the Autodesk Control Surface and enhanced interoperability with the Autodesk Flame, Autodesk Inferno, Autodesk Flint and Autodesk Smoke visual effects and finishing systems.
"Our colorists can now easily define multiple projects, manage configuration options, and establish user-preferences through the Project Management tool. By streamlining data management and allowing us to focus on grading, Autodesk Lustre has become indispensable," said Ivar Beer, head of digital post-production at CinePostproduction GmbH.
