I wanted to experiment using colour isolation mask using the secondary colour correction tool in Sony Vegas Home studio V10. It allows you to set a centre hue and adjust the width of hue on either side to give a narrow band pass of colour. This mask can then then use use with the main saturation set to 0 so all the areas outside the mask are monochromatic. I use this in my introduction amd part way through the video of the slow motion runners. This effect was used by Spielburg in the opening of the film "Schindlers List" with very dramatic effects with the little girl dressed in a red coat is isolated against a monochromatic backdrop.
