I want to use this type if effect on one of my next yoyo videos and would love to know if anyone knows how to do this and could let me know. I can use either Vegas Pro or Imovie, so if this effect is possible on either that would be great. The effect I’m looking for is the black and white video but the yoyo is still colored.

You filter out all of the color except for the color of the yoyo. ---

Well here’s what i know now! Its called the Pleasantville effect…and I have no idea how it would be done on Imovie or Vegas Pro. Anyone know? Anyone find any videos on how to do it or anything like that? ---

Also, you may need to soften the effect, because the “Pleasantville/Sin City” Effect is meant to give a really really harsh Black on White feel. ---
