When you are satisfied with the dust
removal results, you can render your material. Two rendering options
are available depending on whether you render using the Render menu
or the Dust menu:
When you render from the Render menu,
you have the option of turning dust metadata on or off. When dust
metadata is on, you render dust removal changes made to the grade.
Otherwise, dust removal is not included in the render files. Render
files are created for the entire region selected for render and
saved to a separate directory. See
Rendering Shots and
Rendering Dust Metadata.
When you render from the Dust menu, the
render files replace the original files, and the originals are backed
up to a sub-directory called Original.
You can therefore work with dust-free frames while continuing to
point to the original footage directories during the course of the
project. You can render the current frame or the shot. Only those
frames containing changes are rendered. If you change your mind
and want to revert to the original shot, you can restore it.
NoteWhen you render from
the Dust menu, the rendered result is visible from all menus except
the Dust menu. In this menu, boxes and their settings remain in
place, giving you the option to tweak them further and re-render
if needed.
To render from the Dust menu:
Navigate to the shot containing frames
you want to render.
Do one of the following:
To render the current frame, click Frame.
To render all frames in the shot that
have been modified, click Shot.
To render the entire timeline, Shift-click the Shot button.
The frames are rendered.
To restore the original shot:
Navigate to the shot.
Click Restore and confirm by clicking
it a second time.
The entire rendered shot
is replaced with the original.
NoteThe boxes are retained.
Therefore, if you want to start from scratch, you must delete the
boxes first.
