Using different RGB input for B&W output (orthochromatic effect):

Basic : Add 2 serial nodes:

Node 1: pull down red in Cruve to 0 (cyan color look)

⁠

Node 2: Saturation to 0

Play around Luminance Mix (L.Mix) from 0 to 100 in Node 1, it affects the darkness of image

Advanced: (just create 1 node):

Apply RGB mixer in Node 1, tick Monchrome box

⁠

Play around the R, G and B Output bar to give the B&W effect

Remark:

If adjusting the original footage color temperature (e.g. from -4000 (cool) to 4000 (warm) ) give very different RGB mixer result

Also, make S-curve on original footage should give better result too.
