Izzy Video 064 – Channel Mixing

izzyvideo64

This week on Izzy Video, I demonstrate an interesting effect using the channel mixer filter in Final Cut Pro.

Thanks to Alex Lindsay from Pixelcorps for showing the effect on a recent episode of DL.tv.

This video is for members only.

    Podcamp.az sounds really cool. Too bad I live in Texas. Do you think that we will ever have a podcamp in Texas?

    Thanks for the new video tip, I am learning to use Adobe Premeire Pro – Also thanks for letting me know about DL.tv I am donating on a monthly basis to Izzyvideo and would encourage others to do so – as making videos can take a lot of time and energy. Kumar…

    Please Izzy, or someone out there, help me!! How do I turn my video into black and white? I know i can turn saturation down on Color Correction, but as you said on this podcast, that does NOT look great. I have Final Cut Pro 5.0.4 and there is no channel mixing option in this version. So?! Is there any other way to do it?! Please help me!

    Allan,

    I really like the Film Effects plugins from Nattress. Google Nattress plugins, and I believe you’ll find a nice black and white filter there.

    Hope that helps!

    Izzy, your podcast is just awesome!

    I’ve a question though: what version of FCP are u using? I’m on 5.1.4 and there is no trace of channel mixing. That’s too bad, ’cause I was eager to try the effect on one of my recent shorts. I checked natress, as you suggested, but didn’t find the exact equivalent. Could u give me a hint on how to find the exact pug-in which will do the trick?

    Thanks from Italy

    Giovanni,

    I’m using the most recent version of Final Cut Studio. I think it’s called Final Cut Studio 2. Anyway, if Channel Mixing isn’t available in the old version, my recommendation would be to use Nattress’s Film Effects Plugins. They have a black and white plugin that’s interesting, as well as many other useful effects.

    I’m sorry, but this just may be another reason to upgrade to the latest Final Cut version. :-)

    Thanks for watching!
