There’re some good suggestions here. The one thing I really want is for every saber in the PT to be blue. But, yeah, that’s some intense shit. I’m pretty sure I’ll have to figure out and do that one myself (just beginning to learn AE).
Try changing the color of a lightsaber picture first, as training and test 😃
You’re probably following some Youtube tutorials on how to create lightsabers, right?
That’s useful, but if all you need is to change colors, that wont be very helpful.
Try following my process:
1- Load up the lightsaber picture or video you want to change color
2- Create a solid of your desired color over the picture or video
3- Create a mask of the solid over the lightsaber
4- Set the blending mode to Screen or Lighten
5- Mess around with Mask Expansion and Mask Feather values till you get a good result
