  • pleasantville effect on two colors

    Posted by Michael Hampshire on August 27, 2010 at 9:49 pm

    Hey guys I have some footage where two groups are painting using to different colors one color red and the other yellow. My question is how would I do the pleasantville effect on BOTH red and yellow. I know how to do them separately but not sure how to make both the yellow and red show up with everything else black and white and everything i have been trying isn’t working. Any help?

    Thanks

    I’ve never done this, but after you’ve treated the two clips to isolate the two colors, perhaps, you can key one of them based on its color and then invert the key.

    I was thinking the same thing. Or maybe use a keyframed mask, or even a simple wipe between the two. Depending on where the two colors are in the frame.

    Try a blend mode change and some fussing with opacity between the two treated layers.
