  mixing Color and B&W

  Posted by Emptyhead on February 24, 2006 at 11:08 pm

  Is there a fairly simple way to take an existing scene and mix color and B&W together (short of masking every frame)? For example how about highlighting a person sitting on a park bench….the background including the bench are in B&W, but the person sitting on the bench is in color…..is this possible?….any suggestions?

  thanks,
  Mark

  You would do it with a Bezier Mask. You wouldn’t have to set keyframes EVERY frame, but the more movement there is, the more keyframing you have to do.

  Basically you would have the color version on a track above the B&W version.
