Selectivity C

Selectivity center refers to the achromatic center of the color circle and acts on ob-
jects with slightly saturated key colors which cannot be influenced with Selectivity
R
and Selectivity L.

Problem:

The light blue shirt of a newscaster is slightly transparent after
adjustment. It could be made dense with DENSITY; however it
would lose its blue color.

Solution:

Rotate Selectivity C in cw direction until the shirt is dense and
blue again. Correct possibly obtained blue fringes with
Selectivity L and Selectivity R.

Alternative: For reducing newly occurring blue fringes, first use DENSITY and

then Selectivity C as described above.

The Density control can be used to restore the density of the foreground object.
This may become necessary if the foreground object is slightly ”keyed” (transpar-
ent) as a result of blue spill and/or the required selectivity setting.

The Clean up control can be used to ”clean up” the background.
This may become necessary if the background contains noise or undesired shad-
ows etc.
