Examples of Inverted and Isolated Images
The following illustrations show the effects of Isolate and Invert Last Vector on a typical image. If
you use these two features alone or in combination, you can achieve a wide range of special Color
Correction effects in which one area of the image stands out from the rest.
Top: original image. Bottom, left to right: Isolate selected (the selected vector displays in color), Isolate selected and a
correction made to the selected vector, Invert Last vector selected and a correction made to all parts of the image other
than the selected vector, Isolate and Invert Last Vector both selected (the selected vector displays as grayscale and the
rest of the image displays in color).
Understanding How Multiple Vectors Interact
If you correct more than one vector in the Secondary group, your Avid editing application applies the
corrections cumulatively to the image when it plays back. The order of application moves from left to
right across the Selected Vectors panel.
If the color ranges of vectors overlap, the final result in the image is the cumulative result of all the
corrections for the overlapping vectors. For example, if you use the Green vector to change a green
object in the image to yellow, and then adjust the Yellow vector so yellow objects become red, your
original green object is red in the final image.
Keyframing Color Corrections
You can use the advanced keyframes interface in the Effect Editor to animate most color correction
adjustments. You can:
• Manipulate many color correction parameters in the Effect Editor using sliders or parameter
Enable buttons.
• Add and adjust keyframes for many color correction parameters in keyframe graphs, using the
same methods you use for advanced keyframes in other effects.
• View keyframe markers in the position bar below the Current monitor in Color Correction mode.
