Half Black and White half Color Video

Is there a way to take a full color video and make half of the video black and white and the other half full color?  For instance imagine a line down the center of the video, on the left the video is black and white, on the right side it's full color.  Taking that concept if an object or person moves from the left to the right side of the screen, thus crossing that invisible line they automatically switch from black and white to color.
Almost like a video mask overlay..  How would I accomplish this in FCP?  I have FCPS  not FCPX

Why would duplicating the video onto a track above mess up the sync?
What you need to do is edit your piece first, once EVERYTHING is where it should be, THEN do the effects...
unlink your audio (shift-L), select all of your video clips, shift-option click and drag up. Select one of your clips, apply the desaturate or channel mixer effect and the crop... Now, if you do not have any other filters already applied to your clips, select your clip and press command-c to copy. select the rest of the clips that will be destaurated/cropped and right click, select paste attributes. Select filters and Crop, and viola... Tell me where the loss of sync is?
Make sure to press shift-L again so that your audio & video is linked.

    Almost like a video mask overlay..  Is that possible in iMovie?

    When I do that it only makes a short portion (the top video) color somehow it shortens the clip to 2 seconds, I tried to edit for the full 47 second clip (just a sample to play with) but it keeps going back to 2 seconds for the top video. 
    Any other ideas?  I do have Final Cut Pro as well as Adobe After Effects as well, but I just figured iMovie would be easiest way to do this simple effect...

    my printer is Hp printer 932C it will only print in black and white not color I got a new color cartage nothing still only printing in back and whit what can i do

    There are a few things to check:
    Make sure the blue tape has been removed from the nozzle plate.
    Print a diagnostic page as shown in method 4 here.  Does this page print color?  If so the issue may be your driver settings.  Check for a "Print in grayscale" setting and uncheck this box.

  • How to make a photo half black and white with select colours

    Hey,
    Can anyone give me step by step instructions on how to make a photo black and white with abit of colour like the one attached... on CS4?
    Cheers

    Haven't seen you attached file as it takes a long time for attachments to load on this forum.  Try little camera icon instead.
    EASIEST way to have B&W in areas is to add Hue and Saturation adjustment layer.  Use sliders to make B&W.  Next paint on layer MASK, with black, to restore color in areas you want to show color.

  • Black and white selective coloring with brushes disappeared

    The down and dirty:
    Upgraded to Aperture 3.1.1
    Aperture then updated my library
    I open a file that I have selectively colored with black and white (a track and field runner and her lane is color, the field is black and white) and to my horror the thumbnail and "quick preview" is correctly colored, but the full resolution image is not
    How do I get my hard work back?

    I'd like to add one last bit that seems strange to me (and gives me hope that I can recover my edits). When I switch "quick preview" from on to off and the image zooms to the native resolution my edits are in tact for half a second before going away (the image fully loads - I'm not looking at an expanded rendering of the quick preview).
    Also, when I move the image at full zoom my B&W edits flash briefly until I stop moving the image.
    I tried repair permissions and repair database. Both failed.

  • How do i get Firefox to print web pages in black and white only (colors are interpreted in grayscale and some are too light to be read)?

    i have a black and white laser printer. Firefox prints web pages by sending color images to my printer. The printer uses greyscale to interpret the colors. i really want Firefox to send black and white images to my printer, because with greyscale some of the colors are translated to print that is too light to be seen clearly.
    Can this be done?
    Thanks,

  • Help! I  need to know how to make photos black and white from color and leave one thing colored.

    I am a new user. I have elements 6. I really want to take pic of flower that i shot in front
    yard and change it to black and white and then erase the b/w flower to reveal the true
    color of the flower underneath. I have had mixed ways advised to me but not successful
    any way i try. Help please!

    Hi,
    You can use Smart brush.  From tools panel on the left, select Smart brush tool and select Black & White category and select any effect which you wish and start painting over the area to be changed to B/W.To edit your adjustments, you can select Detailed smart brush if you feel more comfortable in using brush than Quick selection tool.

  • Printing black and white with color accent

    I am trying to figure out how the make a photo black and white and just have a flower colored.
    I have Photoshop 9 and am a beginner. Please help!  Thanks.

    1. Open your photo in Full Edit.
    2. Find the smart brush, the one with the gears on it. Choose a black and white style from the thumbnails in the options bar and turn on the Inverse checkbox.
    3. Drag over the flower that you want to keep in color. The rest of the photo will turn black and white.

  • Black and White With Color Not Working

    I am trying to have the background of my image black and white with the person in color.  I turned black and white on then tried brushing black and white away from the person.  Instead of the full, vibrant color coming back it was a dull color.  Instead, I tried turning black and white off then brushing black and white into the background.  This time, instead of being pure black and white it was black and white with an obvious hint of color.  I have watched plenty of tutorials and know that it is possible to have it be pure black and white in the background with the person in front appearing in full vibrant color.  I just don't know what I am doing wrong that either my vibrant color is looking washed out in one method or my black and white isn't pure black and white in the other method.  When I first turn black and white on the image does go to pure black and white.  Any suggestions?

    See what happens after re-booting.
    Is "Brush Range" set to "All"?
    Try the same adjustments on another Image.
    Try the "Color Monochrome" adjustment and see if it works as expected when brushed in/brushed away.

  • When i print from the web pictures are black and white not color

    Having trouble with printing from web the pictures are not color on;y black and white. Ink levels are fine and I have run cleaning and aligning tools. What other solutions am I missing?

    I have tried 100%, AutoZoom, Page width,page fit and actual size and they are all the same size. About 2/3s the size it should be. My printer is set correctly
    and I also reset the printer in msconfig as suggested by another helper. It changed to default and this has not helped. Do I need to reset the msconfig file back to user?

  • Pages 09 poster only prints as black and white but color looks fine on the screen

    The original template my poster was based upon prints in color, I can print other documents from pages in color without issue, and even if I print to pdf (which looks fine on the screen) and then open the pdf in preview and then print, it still prints black and white.
    Um, and yes, it's a color printer and it's a standard 8.5x11 paper, so there's nothing too weird there.  It looks totally fine literally everywhere except paper, and I have no other issues with any other documents, even really similar ones, that I have sent through the same printer.
    I sent the same pdf file to a local copy shop and it printed just fine. 
    ACK!  Please help!

    I can't find anything that is print to black & white or grey scale in the document rules or anywhere else, and since the printer prints it as a pages document AND a pdf as black and white--but someone else can print the same PDF file in living color on their printer without any issues, I'm stumped. 
    Without changing anything, I can print any other document, jpg, web page, or anything on the same printer (including the same apple template) and the colors are fine...but then this one prints in b&w.

  • Black and white vs. color

    This is more a general printing question than an ID question, but here goes. I'm a newbie to printing. I'm just fooling around with ID, getting my feet wet for some eventual projects, and my question has to do with color. If I create an ID document that contains color and then send the document to a printing press (either as a native ID file or a PDF), but with instructions to print in black and white, what happens to my color images if we're not printing in color? I know that the correct thing to do is make sure that every photo is converted to grayscale before going to press, but I'm just wondering what happens in reality if a black-and-white printing project encounters color information? Thanks for considering this newbie question.

    A lot has to do with how the printer's prepress department handles the file,
    and what the capabilities of the RIP are. Somewhere some how the color data
    needs to be interpreted and converted to best possible representation using
    only the K channel. In our shop, if a customer sent an RGB or CMYK file that
    would print on press as black only, we would convert the file to grayscale
    in prepress. If it was a PDF, we would use Pittstop or Acrobat's built in
    color conversion function. If we got an ID file, we would either export as
    PDF and do the afore mentioned procedure, or send as a cmyk file and allow
    our RIP to change to grays. The latter is a bit risky as you really don't
    know what you get until it's on press or a rip proof file is run, both of
    which involve costs. And depending on the complexity of our prepress doing
    this work, it would probably involve some charges.
    Best to do the conversion to gray yourself.
