Hey guys, what up.
This is Serge, and today,
we’re going to replicate the fun color effect
seen at the start of this video.
All this can be done right in Final Cut Pro,
without having to download
or install any plugins.
Down in our timeline,
we have a normal clip.
We’ll start off by changing it to black and white.
This is ver simple to do.
Just select your clip,
and in the inspector,
select the color inspector.
In the saturation tab,
click and drag the global puck all the way down.
That’s all you need to do
to change it to black and white.
Next, let’s duplicate this clip,
and isolate just the color of the car.
Hold down the option key,
and drag up on the clip to make a copy of it.
Place your playhead
where you want to change your clip,
and go back about 10 frames
if you want to add the glitch effect like in my video.
Press Option & Left Bracket key
to ripple trim the start of your clip to the playhead.
Head back up to the inspector,
and go back to the video inspector.
Select Color Board 1,
and press delete to remove the effect
applied in the last step.
Select the color inspector again,
and from the dropdown menu,
choose Hue/Saturation curves.
To isolate the color of our car,
we want the Hue vs Saturation curve.
Move your playhead to a frame
where the color is nice and clear,
and click the eye dropper
beside Hue vs Saturation curves.
In the viewer,
click and drag out a sample of your selected color.
In the color curves,
you’ll see three control points on your line.
The middle control point,
the one with a vertical line going through it,
is your selected color,
and one control points on each side of it
are the hue limit points.
Click and drag the outside control points
all the way down to desaturate all your other colors,
and move them left or right to cover more
or less of your selected hue.
You can also move the middle control point up
to make your color more vibrant.
Now, to add the color glitch effect
to start of your top clip,
move your playhead to the start,
and zoom right in on your timeline.
Press B on your keyboard
to switch to the blade tool,
and blade your clip on every single frame.
Do this about 10 times.
Press A to switch back to the select tool,
hold down the Command key,
and click on every second segment to select it.
Press the Delete key
to delete the selected segments.
Here’s what we have so far.
For the next part,
we’ll go back to our original, full color clip.
Duplicate your top clip,
place your playhead
where you want to switch to full color,
and press Option & Left Bracket key
to ripple trim the start of your clip to the playhead.
With the top clip selected,
in the video inspector,
delete the Hue/Saturation correction.
Blade your clip on the first ten frames,
and delete every other segment.
Now, we’re back to our original image.
Next, we’ll use the Hue/Saturation curves
to change the color of the car.
Duplicate your clip,
and once again,
ripple trim the start of your clip to the playhead.
In the inspector,
select the color inspector,
and from the dropdown menu,
choose Hue/Saturation curves again.
This time, to change the color of the car,
we’ll use the Hue vs Hue Curve.
Click the eye dropper beside the Hue vs Hue curve,
and in the viewer select your color.
Click and drag the middle control point
up or down to change your color.
If you still have some of your original color
showing through,
use the eye dropper again to select that color.
Your vertical line in the Hue vs Hue curve
will move to that specific Hue value.
Click on your curve line to add another control point,
and drag it up or down
to fully change your original color.
Add your glitch effect at the start of this clip,
let your timeline render out
and this is what your finished effect looks like.
