Fading Contrast

So I’m trying to make a loading screen that looks at least somewhat interesting.

I have this picture that it pretty much has a black background, with my character that has a gray and white coloring. Now I want that to have a sort of animation that switches that black background to a white background and the character to switch to a black and gray coloring.

Here’s a sort of example Let's Play: Silent Hill 2 pt.1 - Trailer and Menus - YouTube

You can see the title of the game game just kind of fades to black then white then black to white.

I’m pretty sure this is accomplishable with a widget and making an animation in the widget, I just don’t have the knowledge to know how.

Thanks in advance!
