Selective Desaturation

Selective Desaturation

Lower saturation of specified color

Overview

Selective Desaturation is an effect block that is used to reduce the saturation of a specific color. This can be used as a standalone effect or in-tandem with a Chroma Key block to remove color spill that may remain on your subject layer.

Controls

Chroma Selection

The first color input field determines the color to control saturation of. You can use the eyedropper tool featured on the block to select a color from the layer itself, or if you have a specific color, you can enter a HEX value in the input field.

Threshold

Similar to Chroma Key, threshold controls the similarity threshold for pixels that will be affected. A value of 0 means only exact color matches will have their saturation adjusted.

Smoothing

Smoothing softens the edge of the pixel selection that will be desaturated. Higher smoothing values mean more pixels will be affected. A value of 0 means no smoothing is applied.

Invert

With invert activated, all pixels besides the selected chroma will be desaturated. Pixels that match the selected chroma will not be affected.
