you can do it in FCP….
duplicate the clip and place it frame accurate on v2.
tint the bottom layer black and white.
on v2, mask out the area you want to stay in color (hopefully there isn’t much movement or you will have to keyframe or rotoscope).That is a basic way, there are others, but this may get you what you need.

technically you would mask out the area you want to be black and white, leaving what you want colored, but I think you get the point. I’d mask what I needed, then invert the mask.

Search the forum for Pleasantville. There will be a lot of discussion how to do this. Search back a couple of years.

As john says, search “The Pleasantvill Effect”. There are few tutoials about how to do it with the 3W-CC in FC.
