^^^^^^^^
(hit more info) My first After Effects tutorial! You can probably expect some more in the future. Today is just a simple tutorial, I'll do some more advanced things another time.

The sin city effect is basically the effect where everything is in grayscale (black and white) excpet for one or more color of your choice. This is actually called selective coloring, but due to its popularity it is called the sin city effect (although I have also heard people call it the "Pleasentville Effect" and the "Tivo Transpo Effect")

There are many other effects people call the sin city effect, such as the effect similair to the one we learn today. Basically the effect some people call the "sin city effect" is the effect where everything is black and white excpet for the reflections of light. I will do a tutorial on that another time.....

  • that was a awesome tutorial man your screen capture and zoom are better than any you tube tutorial i have seen, only thing i would harness your opinions about what is easier to do what in what, the reason i say that is thats strickly an opinion, what may work easier for you here rather than sony vegas,might not be the same for someone who has worked in vegas for 10 years. even though i agree with you completly, theres people who wont, good shit though, appreciate it bro!

  • bro is that the old doom music?

  • nice really useful. thanks! xD

  • Nice video i subed to your chanel and thanks for the tutorial it really worked

  • if I can use those colors what I said, can you tell me how? :)

  • can you use more colors, or just red? I mean more like 3 colors in the same time? for example: orange, green, purple and red ?

    

  • Awesome tutorials, very helpful, I want to ask, what program did you use to record your dekstop?

  • when I click the pen, the effect deletes. What's up with that?
