Color Pass

This effect converts a clip to grayscale, with the exception of a single specified color. Use the Color Pass effect to highlight a particular area of a clip. For example, in a clip of a basketball game, you could highlight the basketball by selecting and preserving its color, while keeping the rest of the clip displayed in grayscale. Note, however, that with the Color Pass effect, you can isolate only colors, not objects within the clip.

To specify Color Pass settings:

1 Select the color you want to preserve by clicking a color in the Clip Sample area on the left (the pointer becomes an eyedropper), or by clicking the Color swatch and clicking a color in the Color Selection window.

2 Drag the Similarity slider to increase or decrease the range of the specified color.

3 To reverse the effect, so that all colors except the specified color are preserved, select the Reverse option.
