DSLR Software reviews
Magic Bullet Looks 1.2
Magic Bullet has always been one of my favorite Final Cut Pro plugins simply because of how easy it is to get the look and feel for your clip. I really like your edit interface which consists of your current edit frame, Matte Box, Camera, Lens, and Post. I believe there is close to 100 preset settings which will give you the look of popular films, TV shows and some music videos. There are many major film maker names who use Magic Bullet in their workflow such as Phillip Bloom.
I am really impressed with the star filter effect. Now I don’t have to put a filter on my lens while shooting. It can all be done in post with Looks.
Here is a Clip color graded to get the Dreamy warm feel.
I thought rendering would be an issue but surprisingly it dosent take much longer than most native Final Cut Plugins. This is my favorite plug-in by far. It lets you color grade without doing all the work.
Here is the final short edit.
My test system is a Imac i7 processor with 4 gb of ram Snow Leopard and Final Cut studio pro 2.
