Basically you want the converse of what color keying does right? It should work the same (that is the opposite) way, and you just have to invert the alpha value.

So, a specific example would be very helpful. RGB does stand for red, green and blue, and the color “#FBED54” would be a base-16 representation of how much of the three primary colors make up that specific color. The three colors are represented by two hexadecimal (base-16) digits each, with the hidden radix point on the left. So in this case, it would mean Red has a value of (0.)FB, which is 15/16 + 11/256 = 98.5%, green would be 14/16+13/256=92.6% and so on. The thing is video usually uses a different scheme of representing/storing color, so using rgb values to key the subject out might not be ideal. But still, try using colorkey or colorhold with higher similarity values first.
