Let's take a crack at fixing color banding which often occurs with clean footage when rendering to an HD or even 4K master. Here we use a quick & easy industry standard technique... dithering using grain overlays.

Please be sure to follow along with your own footage. The results can be hard to see on YouTube, but it does work! Please be sure you are viewing in 1440p or higher quality in order to better view the demonstration.

Due to YouTube compression, even 1080p will simply not show the results properly... which is at least a demonstration of YouTube's inability to retain detail in HD.
