Extract effect
The Extract effect removes colors from a video clip, creating a grayscale image. Pixels with luminance values less than
the Black Input Level or greater than the White Input Level are made black. Everything between those points will
appear gray or white.
Note:
The controls for this effect are similar to those of the Extract effect in Adobe After Effects, but the purpose and results
of the effect are different.

Levels effect
The Levels effect manipulates the brightness and contrast of a clip. It combines the functions of the Color Balance,
Gamma Correction, Brightness & Contrast, and Invert effects. This effect functions much the same as the Levels effect
in After Effects.
The Levels Settings dialog box displays a histogram of the current frame (Windows only).

spread. There is also a Bump Layer control to use textures or patterns from other footage to produce special lighting
effects such as a 3D-like surface effect.
