[caitya]

Hi!

I have seen this wonderful short film: http://www.verizonbroadbandfilms.com/
(Grey women).

I would like to know that how could I make a similar effect that everything is in color but the womenis in grey in the picture.

Thanks.

well, use 2 layers. on the upper layer I would track some points of the woman, then I would apply a mask to the tracked point(s) around the woman, and finally there is an effect called color remove (or something like this) and attach that effects to the woman

Thank you! Sorry for these repeated messeges, it was a mistake.

Ive seen that effect dozens of times..but I think it was well used in that short.

There's two ways to do it....either with the color remove...and jus desaturate everything on the girl....orr...you jus put a B&W effect on her layer..and just go crazy on rotoscoping frame by frame around her so she sticks out.

....but also...you could just get a person to wear black and white cloths..and paint her gray with paint or something..that works too.

but it was perrrrty cool short.

By the way, thanks for posting this, the movies are not only good, but they have some cool 'making of' documentaries, story boards, and the scripts posted, nice.

The Grey Woman

Hi guys,
I am the producer for "The Grey Woman". I am glad you had a chance to view it. The company that accomplished those special effects (they are phenomenal) is & comapny: www.andcompany.us
They used Shake and rotoscoped frame by frame! A lot of work that was, but I really wanted top quality, because that was the essence of the film.
Check them out! And thank you again!

i figured that was rotoscoped frame by frame....i'm guessing atleast 3 months of post just to do that.
