Creating Shot Groups			Assigning Values With the Standard Lustre Calculator
Chapter 4, Basics

Use the Selector to copy channel parameters from the current shot to other selected shots in the cut. This feature is useful when you have a series of shots that need to have a similar grade applied to them, for example, shots that are all too dark. You can select all the shots, adjust the brightness for the current shot, and then copy the grade setting to all other selected shots.

For more information about using the Selector to copy grading information in the Multi-Layer Timeline, see Copying Grading Information in the Colourist Timeline.

You can define which channels are copied between shots. For example, if you blurred a shot and adjusted its hue, you can choose to copy only the hue change to the other selected shots. You can copy the following channel parameters between shots using the Selector:

• Colour grading parameters

• Input LUT selections

• Repositioning values

• Tracker data

• Effects

• Render flag settings
