Is it possible to "remove" everything in a video except a specific color (or maybe a range... ie close to a specific color)?

By "remove" I mean covert every that is NOT the color(s) I want to black or transparent.

I have a video that contains a yellowish box that moves about the screen. I want to isolate ONLY the yellowish box. Everything else should become black or transparent. The specific color is "fbed54" according to the color picker in Gimp.

FYI. My knowledge of "colors" in general is extremely limited... let's put it this way, I'm pretty sure RGB stands for Red Green Blue... that's about the extent of it. So, a specific example would be very helpful.
