How do I make an area of my clip colour and the rest B&W?

I heard about masking but how do I make an area of my clip colour and the rest B&W?

The filter you can use is Desaturate with Amount=100 in Image Control.
If you want to apply it to a fixed area within your clip, put a copy of the clip in V2 on top of the priginal (supposing your clip is in V1), apply Desaturate and use Crop in Motion tab of the viewer to define the edges of the rectangle; you can also use Edge Feather to smooth the borders.
If the portion you want black&white is actually a selected person or object in the clip then you must apply Chroma Keyer or 4/8 Point Matte to isolate that portion before applying Desaturate.
I hope I was clear...

  • How to have an object in colour and the rest in black an white?

    Hi everyone,
    Could someone please explain how I can create an effect where one object in the scene is in colour and everything else is black and white? I'm trying to have a red hawaiin shirt stand out like this. I'm using FCP 5, not 6 so I don't have the Color app which I believe does this.
    Thanks in advance
    Simon

    While I'm sure color can do this. It's also pretty easy to do in FCP.
    1. Apply the "Color Corrector 3-Way" to the clip.
    2. With the "Color Cerrector" Tab in the effects window open, look at the bottom of the window and you'll see "Limit Effect" with an arrow on the left side of the window. Click the arrow and some options will appear.
    3. Click the eye dropper tool and select the color you want to keep.
    4. Tweak the selection by adjusting the color sat, and luma options. (There's no true science to this you just have to play with it until you get what you're looking for.) To help click on the "key" below the eyedropper to toggle different views to help you get your matte right.
    5. When you're happy with the matte. Drag the sturation slider all the way down. The color that you selected is now desaturated.
    6. Below the "key" is a "trapezoid" button. Click and it will invert your selection leaving your selected color nice and saturated and everything else B&W.

  • How do I make attachments I receive in mail appear at the top of my messages?  Sometimes they are imbedded all the way at the bottom of an on going discussion and I don't even realize that there is an attachment.

    How do I make attachments I receive in mail appear at the top of my messages?  Sometimes they are imbedded all the way at the bottom of an on going discussion and I don't even realize that there is an attachment.

    If someone sends you an attachment, it's going to show up where they attached it in their message to you.
    Messages with attachments show a paper clip icon in two places, in the middle column of the Mail window, next to the senders name, and next to the sender's name at the top of the message itself.
    One way to make messages with attachments show more clearly is to create a Mail Rule, like this:
    By setting a colored background to the messages that contain attachments, they'll stand out pretty clearly in the message list.
    Note that there are several different types of attachments in the dropdown menu (where you see Document and PDF above). Keep pressing the plus sign to add different attachment types to your rule so that all will stand out on your list of messages.

  • I have created a spreadsheet on numbers for ipad with a list of customers as a drop down menu. How can i make their address appear underneath when i select the customer?

    I have created a spreadsheet on numbers for ipad with a list of customers as a drop down menu. How can i make their address appear underneath when I select the customer?
    iselect the customer?

    Hi bazza,
    We won't be able to put the address from a formula into the same cell that you enter the customer's name. We can put the address in the cell under the customers name.
    First let's take James advice and concatenate the address in the address table.
    Here is the formula in G2
    =CONCATENATE(B2&"
    ",C2&"
    ",D2&"
    ",E2)
    It shows this way because after I clicked on B2 and typed [&"] (no brackets) I typed option-return
    This gives you your new line. Then I typed the closing ". I repeated this for the rest of the address.
    Next we want to bring this to your order sheet. I prefer using the two formulas OFFSET and MATCH instead of VLOOKUP.
    base tells OFFSETwhere to start counting from. Click A1.
    row-offset is for the row. we will use MATCH() -1 to give us the row.
    What MATCH does is give you the row number where something is found and you can specify an exact match. I usually construct the MATCH formula first and then cut and paste it into OFFSET. MATCH looks like this: MATCH(A2,Table 1::A,0). A2 is what we are looking for, Table 1A::A is where we are looking (the entire column A), and 0 means we want an exact match. Can you see it inside the OFFSET formula? Notice that we had to subtract 1 from its result.
    column-offset tells OFFSET which column A=0 so we want 6.
    we ignore "rows", "colomns" we don't need them.
    If this seems like too much, just break it down into small pieces.

  • How do I make a slow  spinning movement so character and scene turns upside down?

    How do I make a slow  spinning movement so character and scene turns upside down?
    It's for a dream sequence.

    The better method (I feel) is to rotate the camera when shooting.
    Certainly that is better. However, I don't have a way to do that, so I imagine that most people don't either. I can turn my tripod's head on its side, but upside down? Not so easy.
    Having said that, there are camera cages designed to do that.
    It is true that my way doesn't fill the frame so one way to handle that is to do it on a copy of the video on a higher track, and blur the heck out of the original to keep the frame filled. Some amount of blur is often associated with dream sequences.

  • How do I make one account's home folder visible to the other?

    How do I make one account's home folder visible to the other? Also, when I begin to delete an account, it asks if I want to either delete its home folder, keep it in the users folder, or save it in a disk image. I want to be able to see it from my remaining account once I delete it, so if I leave it in the users folder, would I be able to see all the files (right now I can't

    Use terminal to add ACL to the account,
    at the prompt:
    sudo chmod -R +a "<user> allow list,addfile,search,delete,add_subdirectory,delete_child,readattr,writeattr,readextattr, writeextattr,readsecurity,file_inherit,directoryinherit" /User/<user_name> #yep, all that goes on one line!#
    #Replace <user> with the user name that you want to have file/folder privileges#
    #Replace <user_name> with the account you want to process#
    example:
    sudo chmod -R +a "sue allow list,add_file, .... deletechild,readsecurity,file_inherit,directoryinherit
    /User/joe
    #sue now gets full access to joe's files and folders#
    to remove:
    sudo chmod -R -a "sue allow list,add_file, .... deletechild,readsecurity,file_inherit,directoryinherit
    /User/joe
    You can add as many users as you want! Just lather, rinse repeat. That is how I share my itunes
    directory with the ones I want to share it with.
    That's the simplest way. ACL permissions overrule posix permissions.

    just try the following:

  • How do I make a JTable's header sorting actually change the actual table?

    How do I make a JTable's header sorting actually change the actual table?
    Currently, I'm using
    table.setAutoCreateRowSorter(true);to allow the user to sort the table.
    However, I want to be able to load something based on the selected row's index. The problem is that when the table is rearranged, the change appears to only be local, in other words, the actual table isn't changing.
    For instance:
    index 0 "A"
    index 1 "B"
    index 2 "C"
    Sorted in reverse gives me
    "C"
    "B"
    "A"
    But C is still index 2 (instead of 0).
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello, aligt9p. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    To create an Apple ID without a credit card, there is a specific series of steps that have to be processed in order to allow the payment to be set as none on creation of the account.

    If the specific steps have not been processed, a credit or debit card will be required to complete the setup the account.
    However, it can be removed and payment method changed to none as long as there is not an outstanding balance.
