NEWB question - How do I make my video Black and white?

I've poked around the manual, google, and the forums. I'm sure the answer is MORE than obvious, but at this time....i cannot figure it out.
How do i get to a settings/coolor bar with sliders that will allow me to make video B&W, control saturation and brightness?
Thanks guys!

GOOD NEWS! Thanks to you guys, I figured it out. Within the 3-way color corrector here is what I did (for future searchers):
- Go the effects tab.
- Go to Video Filters> Color Correction> 3-way color corrector.
- Click and drag the filter on the the clip in the time line.
- Now double-click the clip you just dragged the filter on to, this should be it up in the viewer up top.
- No, click on the 3-way color correction tab.
- You will see 3 color wheels. Ignore them for now and notice the slider underneath them, "Saturation" or "Sat". Take this slide and move it to the very left.
You now have black and white video.

  • How do I make image backgrounds black and white while maintaining color in the foreground objects?

    I have a close up close-up image of an orchid with blurred background.  I am trying to make the background black and white while maintaining the foreground color on the petals, buds and stems.  Any ideas?

    Use the Blank & White Brick and either brush the effect onto the background or brush is away from the foreground.  "Detect Edges" will help control the edge of the mask.
    You might be interested in knowing that you can brush on/away masks of different strengths, and thus produce effects in between 0% and 100%.
    Search the forum -- there are several good posts detailing how to create this effect.

    What program are you using - Photoshop Elements or Premiere Elements, what version, and on what computer operating system is it running?
    If you are using Photoshop Elements and not Premiere Elements, you have posted in the wrong forum. In that case, you want to post in the Adobe Photoshop Elements Forum. Somehow your thread got posted in the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum (video editing).
    Photoshop Elements
    If your program is Premiere Elements, I will give you a how to for what you want to do using Premiere Elements for your video project.
    We will be watching for more information from you.

  • Make video black and white

    I searched for an answer but was only able to find info regarding color pass. I simply need to know how to make my video completley black and white. I have tried dragging down different effects and turning down all RGB, chroma, gamma etc...but I can't find out how to do it. As a long time Premiere user, there was an effect that one could drag down and it would make the video black and white.
    Please help me find a simple way to make video black and white. I'm using Final Cut Pro 5
    Thanks in advance!

    AND-- you'll probably find you want to play with the contrast a little bit. Video is notorious for really not having all that much contrast range. It's the colors that fool the eye.

    I am trying to print using the black and white cartridge only because magenta is out of ink but I'm getting the following error message in HP Photosmart C7200 series print dialog:

    The following ink cartridges are empty: Magenta. Replace these ink cartridges to resume printing.

    I am absolutely disgusted by this; clearly a scam from HP to make more money by selling extra ink cartridges!!  I will make sure to never buy any products from the shoddy rip off merchants at HP ever again!!
    You should be ashamed!!

  • C6150 - how to make it a black and white only printer

    I have the C6150 all-in-one printer - it keeps running out of color cartridges even though I rarely use color printing.  I want it to ignore the status of color cartridges even if they are empty.  I set my printing option to say "black cartridge only" but it still doesn't allow printing and given an error message that "Replace the following empty ink cartridges to resume printing" - why does it need color cartridges to print in black when I am explicitly specifying it to use "Black cartridge only" in my print option?  How do I make this printer a black and white only printer and igonre the status of color cartridges?

    I have that happen as well. I have it set to print black only and it is still using color. Haven't a clue why!!!

  • Videos black and white

    Hi there.
    I have a iPod 80GB, and the original iPod AV cables with docking station. I have connected the cables to my home theatre system. Music fine, and I have a cable running from video out on dvd to tv (plasma). Get picture, but in black and white. Have changed all components (dvd, iPod and tv) to PAL, still no change. Any ideas PLEASE!
    Thanks

    To everyone else who have tried the PAL to NTSC setting and still getting black and white output.
    I had a 60 GB IPod Video which I bought the A/V KIT. I set the TV out to ON made sure it was set to NTSC, even tried the S-Video Cable which I bought at Radio Shack. Tried several different TVs. I reset the iPOD, even restored it to factory settings wiping all my data and reloading the COLOR video's with no luck.
    After many fustrating searches on many websites (none of which had solutions but several others who had the same problem), I called apple support. Due to my inability to make a descion on how to repair the problem I actually ended up taking to three different support personal. Each with a different solution. The last swore up and down that it was a bad Apple A/V Cable. This made no sense since the s-Video also put out black in white.
    Finially, I was able to show the problem to the Genius at the local Apple Store who confirmed the iPOD had a defective video out chip.
    SOLUTION: IPod had to be replaced.
    WARNING; since the IPod was replaced, I no longer had the laser engraving. You may be able to ship an laser engraved iPod to Apple, but I'm not sure if they will promise to return the personilized iPod so consider carefully your choices.
    Otherwise, I love the iPod, looking forward to what iPhone is going to do.

  • Make Colour Film Black and White

    Sorry about this but I can not find how to make my colour video into a black and white film.

    You'll need a reverse telecine scan to film for that.
    Or if you want to fake the look in FCP, try this: remove the saturation in the 3 way color corrector, then with the brightness and contrast filter play with contrast to get a pleasing look.

  • How can I turn a picture black and white and keep some objects in color?

    I have seen some pictures that are black and white, and a few objects (flowers, dresses, hair bows, etc) were in their original color. I was told you could do it with Photoshop, but I cannot figure out how. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    The easiest way to do this (and there are lots of ways) is to create a hue/saturation adjustment layer above your base image. In the dialogue box, push the saturation slider all the way to the left. This will make what you see monochrome. Now select a brush and click on the layer mask next to the layer you just created. When you paint on the mask in black, you will block the desaturation effect of the layer and reveal the original color on the layer below. Paint in white to reverse this effect.

  • Make iMac screen Black and White

    I have a 3.06 ghz imac running Leopard. I want to make the monitor show black and white (like greyscale back in the day). How do I do that? I've discovered different profiles under the Monitors CP. Thanks!

  • How can I turn an image black and white?

    I want to edit an image I have inserted into a pages document. I can't see a way to easily change the colouring of the photo to black and white. Using the bars seems to make the colouring look a little odd. Any suggestions?

    In Pages v5.2.2, the quickest way to transform a photo to b/w is to select the photo, and on the right panel's Image tab — completely desaturate the image. Tweak the Exposure for tonality adjustments.
