GPU-Accelerated Processing
Lustre takes advantage of the graphical processing unit
(GPU) to accelerate the core primary and secondary
grading tools and several of the Lustre effects plug-ins.
GPU grading significantly helps boost the real-time
interaction and capability of the Lustre system.
Multilayer Timeline
Lustre provides a powerful conform toolset for building
timelines and handling editorial changes, which, in
the Digital Intermediate (DI) suite, are a fact of life.
The multilayer timeline in Lustre gives colorists the
gestural tools to help make edits, shot versions, and
grade versions faster. Try out multiple looks on a
single shot or rearrange the shots of an assembled
edit decision list (EDL) and then simply apply the
looks across multiple shots.
Stereoscopy
Autodesk solutions are designed to help develop a
holistic stereo pipeline, from 3D to 2D compositing
and color grading. Speed up the process of grading,
previewing, and rendering left- and right-eye media
with the automated stereoscopic tools in Lustre. A
bidirectional stereoscopic timeline and cross-product
media compatibility mean that facilities can easily
add Lustre color grading to Flame visual effects and
Smoke editorial finishing workflows already in place.
Parallel Lustre grading workflow with Smoke 2011
and Flame 2011 for visual effects and editorial finishing
allows artists to work more efficiently from a shared
pool of media.

Color Decision List
Lustre integrates the American Society of
Cinematographers’ color decision list which was
developed to help make sure that images appear the
same when displayed in two different places on two
different platforms, for a more consistent look across
the different stages of post-production — from on
set look creation to dailies to final grade.

Autodesk Control Surface
A unique and beautiful modular three-ball control

color grading functions, and is available as an optional
