Hi guys

I was wondering if the same effect to change color of an object

For example from red to blue

How to aproach the same effect like in after effects, which has the "change color to" effect

Does it involve rotoscoping or the wand tool?

Please let me know, im still figuring out fusion as i go

Please and thank you

Well, the old school way would be to pull a key of the color you want to change, feed the alpha of that key back into a colorized or rotated hue version of what you want the color to be, there by masking out everything but the one item whose color you want changed. Merge that over your original shot, and you should have changed the color of 1 object.

Or do it in Resolve…

The Hue Curves tool can do what you want. It's a little bit complex if you've never used a tool of its kind before.

Drag the pick button to the Viewer to choose the hue you are targeting; just clicking it won't do anything. A new spline point will appear in the graph with an inverted triangle marker rather than the square default markers. Set the tool up to affect only the qualities you want to change—hue is a likely one—with the checkboxes at the top. Then drag the picked spline point up or down to change the targeted color.

As with all curve tools, it's sometimes easier to manipulate it in the Spline View. In this example, you'll notice that I picked up some of the dirt in my correction. A rough luma key off the blue channel would probably do to clean that up.
