Mask everything but 1 color
Does anyone know a quick way to mask out everthing in the video frame but one color.
I have some footage (30 sec) taken of a windy road with the camera focused mainly on the yellow center lines going by. I am trying to mask out everything but the yelow lines so that it can be merged with other footage to form a composite. The problem there are other colors in there, trees, cars going by etc. I am using CS3 also with BCC5 plugin. I know there is probably not an easy answer to this but any pointers would be great. Thanks! Rich |

simple, import into AE and use "Leave Color" effect, use eydropper to pick yellow color, adjust for tolerance and your done

Great - Thanks for the input guys - I will give it a shot in AE, although I will have to install a trial - is there a simular preset in PP for this?

Yes, if you're in Premiere, go to Video Effects -> Color Correction -> Leave Color. It's the same Effect that Adam mentioned in AE.
