One of the benefits of working with video files in Photoshop is that you can create effects using
adjustment layers, styles, and simple transformations.
Adding adjustment layers to video clips
You’ve used adjustment layers with still images throughout this book. They work just as well on
video clips. When you apply an adjustment layer in a video group, Photoshop applies it only to
the layer immediately below it in the Layers panel.
1. Select the 3_DogAtBeach layer in the Layers panel.
2. In the Timeline panel, move the playhead to the beginning of the 3_DogAtBeach layer so
you can see the effect as you apply it.
3. In the Adjustments panel, click the Black & White button.Note
If you had imported the video file using the Place command, so that it was not in a
video group, to limit the adjustment layer to a single video layer you would have to
set up the adjustment layer as a clipping mask, as you did on page 98.4. In the Properties panel, leave the default preset, and select Tint. The default tint color
creates a sepia effect that works well for this clip. You can experiment with the sliders and
the tint color to modify the black-and-white effect to your taste.5. Move the playhead across the 3_DogAtBeach clip in the Timeline panel to preview the
effect.
