  • Trying to Seperate Color Channels and then combine them like this video…..

    Posted by Jack Hilkewich on October 10, 2006 at 4:35 pm

    Sorry this is a re-post but I would like to see if someone can help me out.

    I was following this video: https://www.aviatorvfx.com/index.php?cmd=frontendScreeningPopup&id=color&video=1&size=high

    This looks pretty cool. I have gotten as far as the making the matte for the three different channels. At least I think I did it right. I duplicated the three channels that I have made. red, green, and blue. Then I made the bottom ones have a track matte with it set to Luma Matte. Is that Correct?

    Now how does one combine the red and blue to go over the green like they do in the video? And further how do they then combine the the last stage to make the final look? I haven’t delved into this end of After effects before so I am quite in the dark about this.

    Thanks.

    Look a bit further down the page – someone was asking the very same thing the other day.

    Or search “aviator” “technicolor” in the archives and you should get a bunch of answers.

    you don’t need a luma matte,just use the layer mode “add”.

    [Shayder] “Now how does one combine the red and blue to go over the green like they do in the video?”
    it will now when you animate the position property.

    i’m just wondering how to create the black and white mattes for each color
