NEW IN CONTINUUM 2021, the BCC Color Paste filter takes the luminance values of the foreground image and pastes it as a color over the background.
Filter Parameters
Opacity: Sets the opacity of the foreground element.
Color: The Color parameter sets the color of the foreground image through the use of a standard eyedropper or color picker. The default color is white.
A Note for Adobe Premiere Users:
- Color Paste requires a minimum of Premiere Pro CC. In addition, the Sequence Settings > Composite in Linear Color preference needs to be disabled for Color Paste to composite correctly.
A Note for Nuke Users:
- Input Is Premultiplied. In Nuke, the Color Paste filter needs to know if the input image is premultiplied. Enable if premultiplied.
- In Nuke, Color Paste premultiplies the output by default.
Working with The Filter
- Apply BCC+ Color Paste from the Key and Blend unit
- In After Effects / Final Cut Pro / Motion / Premiere Pro:
- Stack your foreground clip (what you want to color paste) above a background layer/track.
- Apply Color Paste to the foreground layer/track.
- In OFX Hosts such as Nuke and Resolve
- For node based hosts, apply Color Paste to a RGB clip and then use a Composite or Merge node to composite the result.
- For layer-based hosts such as Vegas, stack your foreground clip (what you want to color paste) above a background layer/track. Then, apply Color Paste to the top foreground layer/track.
- Adjust the Opacity and Color to achieve the desired effect.
Note: Color Paste requires a minimum of Premiere Pro CC. In addition, the Sequence Settings > Composite in Linear Color preference needs to be disabled for Color Paste to composite correctly.
