Is there any way in premiere to select an area of a frame to affect with one of the effects? Such as the selection tool in Photoshop?
 
Ill post it here too, what I posted in that other thread...

Well if youre using PPRo 2.0 its easy and you dont have to use a key efffect or mattes.

Go to your efffects window, twirl down Video effects , twirl down Color Corrector

Then apply the Three Way Color corrector to your clip

Under Tonal range definition , Tonal Range, you'd probably want to set this to Master ( you should see only one color wheel now )

Then up at the top under Output, select Mask

Now, Go to the bottom of that effect and twirl down Secondary Color Correction an d you'll see 'Center' with three eyedropper tools. Select the regular one ( with no + or - ) and you will see you image go back to the composite view.

Click on the color you want to replace. The view will switch back to the 'mask' view and show you the range of color you have selected in white. Now you can use teh eyedropper with + to add to taht selection or the - to remove something.

Once you have a good selection, go back up to the top of that effect in the Effect Controls, and switch your view to Composite. Now you can mess with the color wheel or saturation or hue, or whatever you need and it will only affect that color range what you ahve selected.
