From B&W to color
I have a very colorful footage and I wish that the clip starts in Black and White and seamlessly turn to color as it progresses. Since the B&W effect is not keyframable, I have used the Tint effect with its default settings, keyframed from 0 to 100, to do this. Although the effect is OK, kindly let me know if this is the right way or is there a better way to do it.

Razor your clip in the timeline(the color version)at the point that you want the effect to start.
Make the first clip(prior to the edit)B&W, no keyframing involved.
Place dissolve at the edit point and adjust to you liking(duration). -
The Color Balance (HLS) effect allows you to keyframe the saturation to manipulate color intensity using keyframes. Very easy to go to/from B&W in a single clip this way.
