Keyframing Black & White effect?

Has anyone had this problem?  I had a student who wanted the Black & White effect to fade in over the course of a 30 second clip in one of her projects.  She applied the effect, keyframed it in the Video Animation panel above the clip, let it render, and it played back perfectly in her Timeline.  When exported, the entire clip was black and white.  If she quit and then reopened FCP, the entire clip was black and white.  We deleted preferences, repaired permissions, and reapplied the effect, but the problem remained.
Our workaround was to leave the Black & White effect applied to the entire clip, place a copy of the clip above the original, and fade the opacity of the copy.  That worked.  Anybody else with a similar experience?  Is this worth reporting as feedback?
We're using FCP 10.0.9 in OS 10.8.5 on a 3.2GHz Intel core i3 iMac with 8GB of RAM.  The footage is AVCHD 1920x1080 shot on a Panasonic camcorder (can't recall which model) optimized to ProRes422.

Yes, it's reproducible. It does not happen when you keyframe the effect use the amount value in the inspector.

  • Black & White Effect On Camera

    Hello
    I am new to iPhone Development. I am using UIImagePickerView and AVCaptureSession to Open Camera. I want to set Color Effect and black & white Effect on Camera.
    Is there any Code of Sample App?  Are there any suggested articles that I can read to learn more about my different options.  
    Please help, thanks!

    It is quite possible there may be a defect with your iSight camera (back side).  How old is your iPhone?  If you are more than 90 miles from an Apple Store you can call 1-800-APL-CARE and they can set up a mailed repair for you?
    Keep in mind a mail-in repair without having AppleCare on your phone may cost you to have it turned around quickly.  (Just buy the AppleCare for you phone and it should be fast)

  • Mixing Color and Black & White

    Does anyone know how to produce a monchrome photo with a little bit of color in it.
    i.e. A picture of a bride at a wedding holding a bouquet of roses. I want the whole picture monchrome with just the roses being colored red.
    Please point me in the right direction

    That's a great idea and with the right photo it can give a really good effect. Use adjustment layers just like silkrooster is saying. Here's a tutorial of using the adjustment layers (black & white effect). You should get your answer there.

  • How to keyframe from colour to black & white

    I am trying to do a video from present then moved to the past. So I am starting a clip from colour, then slowly it turns into black & white.
    I have 2 questions:
    1) How do I keyframe the above effects ?
    2) Instead of using the Sepia effect, is there other effects to make the video black & white ?
    Thanks

    Under the Effects-Lumetri Looks-Desaturation choose a B and W effect. Then add the luma corrector from the Video effects-colour correction section. Adjust the brightness and contrast to get the effect you want.

  • How to get black and white effect in photos

    Hi There,
    I have always wondered how people get to add black and white effect in a photograph. Anyone with tips and/or videos to show how this is done?
    Thanks in advance.

    Start with a raw image for detail, you can adjust anything here especially shadow and highlight detail, the second button). You can then use the adjustment layer of black & white. Start with auto, but how pull the sliders around is different for each phot. If you still want to enhance certain areas I suggest color balance (under the black and white) for shad, mids, highlights.

  • Is there a way I can export a video in the Black and White effect

    On Universal Access in the System Preferences there is that option to make the whole computer in Negative and when I use that on a video i've made it looks so much cooler but like it only stays like that if it is in black and white effect.
    Is there a way to make a video in the black and white effect even if that isn't on in Universal Access.

    Yeah but that's black and white i'm talking about white on black
    sorry for the confusion i didn't notice that till now.
    I wish it co uld look liek that because the negative I use in imovie looks really bad comapred to the white on black effect.

  • Help Getting This Black & White Colour Effect

    Im trying to get this effect
    Its basically a 2 of the same images, 1 x black n white 1 x colour
    the colour is under neath and the black and white you rub out the parts you want.
    I cant seem to figure out how to merge the 2 coloured pics,and then earse it properly.
    Really novice user here sorry

    Open color picture
    Duplicate background layer
    Open a hue/saturation adjustment layer above the background copy layer. You do this by clicking on the half black/white circular icon in the layers palette
    Drag the saturation slider (the middle one) all the way to the left
    Your color chip (left corner) should be black for the foreground color
    Access the brush tool and paint with black where you want the color to be visible. If you go too far, correct by painting white
    TIPS
    Using x on the keyboard toggles between black and white
    The bracket keys can be used to change brush size ] increase, [ decrease

  • Black & white and Sepia effects

    Hi, I have iPhoto 5 (version 5.0.4) and would like to convert original photos to either Black & White or Sepia. Can I do this in this version? I don't seem to have those options when I select a photo to start editing it. thanks :o)

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    It’s quite a while since I used v5 but I think you’ll need a later version to do this. Or you can use an external editor:
    In order of price here are some suggestions:
    Seashore (free)
    Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
    Acorn ($50 approx)
    Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
    There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate.
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

  • Background: black&white - Object: color - How???

    Hi,
    My English isn't very good, I hope you understand it, if not please ask. Well, I've got a self-made movie where a you see a car driving. I want that the car got his normal colors (blue and black) and the background should only be black and white. Is this possible in CS3, and does somebody know how? Or does somebody have a good tutorial for this?
    Thank you,
    Patrick

    This is much easier to  do in After Effects but if you do not have AE here we go:
    Put clip op track 1 and add Black and White effect. You can also turn down the saturation in several effects.
    Put same clip (without the B&W) on track 2 and add the 16 garbage matte.
    Keyframe the garbage matte over time on the car in the clip.
    or
    add clip to track 1
    add clip to track 2
    add a white colour matte to track 2 and add the garbage matte to this and keyframe object over time
    for feathered edge add a fast blur.
    Dubble garbage matte
    Add RGB curves to the first clip to make the BandW more intens.

  • How can I convert RGB Color to Black-White Color?

    Dear everyone!
    I am using Photoshop CS5. I have got a file from my customer which is done as RGB and the resolution is 300dpi. There are black texts and color images in the file. I wish to print Black-White Process Film (1 black color), but I don't know how to solve it. I started converting my file to Grayscale and then the black texts are not black enough because it becomes lighter. When I go to Level and adjust the color, both the image and texts becomes darker. What must I do to make only texts blacker without effecting the image?
    Please find the attached file for the reference.
    For more information, please let me know.
    My Best Regards,
    LUCK

    What file format was supplied to you? Was it truly RGB @ 300ppi or did you rasterize a PDF?
    300ppi is lousy for text. You might converse with your customer to instruct them on the ideal way to supply a file to you.

  • Lightroom or Elements for a simple purpose - RAW to black&white

    Hi,
    I have no experience whatsoever with digital photography, I've been working on analogue for several years now, but want to give it a try...
    The thing is that I'm looking for a software, which will allow me:
    - possibility to convert color RAW from camera into black&white RAW, then export as a JPEG (I'd like to have a chance to enhance the contrast etc. on the RAW in b&w before having a final file, and maybe add option of plugins as NIK Silver Efex in the future if I feel a need for it)
    - add white frame around the JPEG, of which size I could choose, and maybe add my name/logo + date on the frame
    I'm confused and don't know which software would allow me to do that two, simple things - Lightroom or Elements?
    Thanks for your support!

    Elements is more limited in how to adjust the colors to black-and-white.
    Lightroom has more sophisticated adjustments.  These adjustments are the same as in the Camera Raw plug-in for Photoshop, but absent in the Camera Raw plug-in for Elements.  The adjustments allow you to enhance the contrast and brightness of the gray-level for narrow ranges of original colors instead of a simple removal of color with a default color-balance or clicking on a preset that Elements has.
    Here is a very verbose video introduction to the LR B/W conversion on an example photo, viewed best in full-screen HD:
    http://www.luminous-landscape.com/tutorials/bw_workflow_in_lightroom.shtml
    Here is a step-by-step example with screenshots and description, from 2008, but the adjustments still mostly apply, except the vignetting you’d use wouldn’t be lens-related, it’d be the Post-Crop Vignetting in the Effects section that didn’t exist back in 2008:
    http://layersmagazine.com/create-stunning-black-and-white-images-in-lightroom.html
    These were just the first and third links that showed up after Googling for Lightroom Black and White.
    BTW, I am a photo-hobbyist and use Lightroom every day, so it’s not just for professionals making money off their photos that need something fast.  For me it is more about seriousness and perfection and freedom.

  • How do I order my print in black/white in the updated iPhoto

    I have just updated to the new iphoto in Mac OS X 10.9    I am trying to order my color print as a black & white photo.  I have gone into the edit/effects area and changed the photo to black & white.  When I click on the share/order prints icons, the photo always reverts back to the original color photo.  In the older iphoto version, I was actually able to click on order prints, then it would give me a black & white order option.  This seems to no longer work this way.  I must be missing something obvious, but I cannot seem to figure it out.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Doesn't seem to be as user friendly as the previous iphoto version.  Thank you. 

    You are right - the "Order Prints" dialog does show the B&W version as a color photo.
    That looks like a bug to me.
    As a work-around, while you are waiting for a bug fix:
    Use File > Export to export your B&W version to a folder and reimport the version.
    Then try to order prints for the reimported version. That should show the photo in greyscale only, like this.
    Send feedback to Apple, to let them know, that this needs fixing.  The form is here:   Apple - iPhoto - Feedback
