Custom Color Layer for Mac
With the new Custom Color Layering feature of Filmora Mac, users can create a unique atmosphere for their clips. Users get the ability to choose fill types and save the layers as reusable presets for future projects. The color layers can be applied directly on the timeline and further refined using the masks to shape and soften edges. Moreover, users can add animation to these layers to create dynamic effects.
You can choose from the color options provided or pick a specific color using the color picker utility offered by the tool. Provided below is the guide on how to use Filmora’s feature on your Mac devices for stylizing your video:
Step 1: Create a New Project from the Homepage
Start by clicking on the New Project option located on the homepage of Filmora. Next, import your video for which you want to stylize the color and drag it to the editing timeline.

Step 2: Choose the Custom Color Feature
In the editing interface of the tool, access the toolbar from the top and press the Media option. Next, click on the Custom Color Layer after enabling the Editing Presets section from the left. Proceed to the Custom Color Layer option and press the + icon to process further.

Step 3: Select Colors and Other Attributes
Expand the Fill Type option in the following small window and choose the color of the layer according to your choice. Next, press the Save As Custom option and hit the OK button after naming the layer.

Step 4: Apply The Color Layer to the Video
Drag the created layers to the timeline on your desired video segment or press the + icon to apply it. Access the Layer panel on the right and choose the Blend Mode option to make the layer blend with the video.

Step 5: Mask the Applied Layer
Mask a certain segment in the video by applying the layer to the specific area and accessing the Layer panel on the right. Enable the Mask section from the top and choose the shape of your choice. Reposition and resize the shape and change its opacity according to your preferences.

Step 6: Animate the Custom Color Layer
To give a flair of dynamism to the color layer, apply it to your clip and access the Animate section under the Layer panel. Choose the animation of your preference and apply it to the video by dragging it to the timeline. Once the theme color is correctly set, head to the top right corner and Export the video.
