Extract

This effect extracts colors from a video clip, creating a textured grayscale appearance. Control the clip's appearance by specifying a range of gray levels that will be converted to white or black.

To specify Extract settings:

1 Drag the two triangles underneath the histogram (a diagram showing the number of pixels at each brightness level in the current keyframe) to specify the range of pixels converted to white or black. Pixels between the triangles are converted to white. All other pixels are converted to black.

2 Drag the softness slider to introduce levels of gray into the pixels that have been converted to white. Higher softness values produce more gray.

3 Select the Invert option to reverse the range that is converted to white and black.
