What It Does
False Colour replaces luminance ranges in your footage with custom colors. Pick where each color appears based on brightness values, adjust how the edges blend between colors, and randomize to explore variations quickly.
Key Features
1 to 5 color selection. Map a single color across your image or divide it into five distinct luma ranges. Each color targets a specific brightness zone you define.
Luma range controls. Set exactly which luminance values each color affects. Bright highlights can get one color, midtones another, shadows a third.
Edge smoothing. Blend the transitions between your color zones. Sharp cuts or soft gradients, your choice.
Randomize button. Generate new color combinations and luma distributions instantly. Useful for exploring looks without manual tweaking.
15 included presets. Start with ready-made color schemes and adjust from there.
32-bit color support. Works with high-bit-depth footage without banding.
The plugin differs from Colorama by using direct luma selection instead of cycling through gradients. You pick the brightness range, assign a color, and control the blend amount.
Who It’s For
Motion designers creating stylized grade looks. Editors who need quick color experiments. Anyone working with data visualization where color needs to represent luminance values. Also works in Premiere Pro, not just After Effects.
