Topic starter

I'm editing a teaser trailer for a JTHM movie, for thos eof you who dont know it's a black and white comic, but I'd like to make it so that all the blood in the footage is red while the main footage stays black and white...I've already made the color footage black and white, now what do I do? I'm using Premier elements if that helps at all...

If they did it in the eighties, we can do it now!

hey hank,
yer it's easy hey, get two of the original clips, on the timeline the one on the bottom will be black and white(by the way it is a little more sepia tone than black and white)sick movie. The one on the top will be for the blood, first you have to matte the area around the blood and select inverse so this is the only thing visable in the top clip, then you colour correct the top (blood) layer so it is even more red than in real life. walla done
got any probs mail me mattzafir?yahoo.com.au

I managed to do something to the same effect using layers and threshold with Sony Vegas itself.
Its pretty simple actually, but what Robert Rodriguez has done in Sin City is like miles greater than what i've achieved.

But I did manage to get yellow bastard to look like yellow bastard without the yellow slipping. Just a tactful use of color overlay and burning the right edges to reflect the color overlay on a seperate layer. Same thing could be adapted to blood splatter as well.
