[Avid-L2] Re: Best Fix for Fluorescent Flicker / Color Change?

That was my concern with Flicker Fix as well, sense it effects the entire screen based on a sample area. I don't recall if you can track the target sample area. If you can track the sample area there might be something. Just thinking out loud perhaps you could stack the shot and balance the top track to have the problem area match the rest of the shot. Then use an animatte to track the band. depending on the edge of the band it might be tolerable although I doubt it would be perfect.

Both those are expensive and resource-heavy, so I am leery of investing in those unless I can see a real advantage.
