Is there an effect, like the obscure effect, but that does the opposite? Basically I want to highlight a section of the image - I know I can do this with a colour clip + transparency + shape mask, but I'm wondering if there is a simple one click effect (like there is for obscure) that can do this.

Thanks.

i dont' think... usually i place a motion tracker on the object to follow/highlight and with "crop by padding" i crop the object from the contest.. (also another clip like the one used can be placed as background with reduced brightness)

You can use alpha shapes, and change the Min value to something higher to not make it totally black

Thanks! Yeah alpha shape seems to be exactly what I need.
