How To Make A Black & White Video That Transitions To Color
You can easily make your own black and white gender reveal video on your iPhone with the help of iMovie.
Step 1: Film Your Video
Choose from the gender reveal video ideas above or come up with your own idea and film your gender reveal video with your phone.
Step 2: Duplicate Your Video
Next step is to duplicate your video because we need two, one black and white and one color that we will later combine.
To do this click edit video, trim the video the slightest bit and then click save as a new clip.
Step 3: Add A Filter
On one video click edit and then add filter. Choose black and white.
Step 4: Trim Videos
Now you need to edit each video to the right length. Remove the end of the black and white video to where you want the color to start. Then trim the front of the colored video to the same point the black and white video ended.
Step 5: Combine Videos
The last step is to upload both of your videos into an iMovie project. Add both clips in order of black and white first and then color. When you save your movie you’ll be left with one video that’ll be your black and white gender reveal that transitions to color!
