Re: [Avid-L2] Effect ordering question

when using the Boris BCC plugins in Avid MC, the Apply to Title and
Multifilter features (in the Title-Matte group) give you some good tools
for handling such compositing issues in MC. I actually spent about a half
hour demoing about this in a BorisFX webinar this past Wednesday... It's
actually possible to do some pretty sophisticated compositing that way.

it effects lower layers, is still as it always was. Wish Avid would have
updated that. Things like this, or not being able to apply say an animatte,
and then a resize to move the whole enchilada (and not take the background
with it) just need to be updated. However for just straight cutting I see
Avid is just a fast as it's always been. It feels like old time to be back
in the interface, and in a good way.

the matte)

I have an effects ordering question. Back in the Meredian/Adrinaline days I
never found a way round this but thought maybe something might have changed
while I was away. Basically I want to apply and effect and only have it
effect the layer it is on, not the layers below. Here's an example…

Spectra Matte to key it out (Boy did I ever miss Spectra Matte) But now
that I have the key pulled I want to add a color correction to the keyed

well. Is there any way to isolate that correction to just V2 and not have
it pass to the background on V1?
