Film also lets you protect skin tones, something other film emulation plug-ins won’t. The adjustments in terms of hue, tint, grain, etc are slider based and with realtime visual feedback, are as simple as they get. The combination allows for endless variations.
Magic Bullet Film gives you a generous choice of negative films to choose from and four “print” films for output. That makes it a bit more complicated to work with, but to be honest: much more rewarding. Let’s start with the new module in all supported hosts. I also briefly tried it within Adobe After Effects.

I tested Red Giant Magic Bullet Suite 12 with Final Cut Pro X. Those two apps unfortunately haven’t been updated and still only run in the Adobe apps After Effects and Premiere Pro. The Suite also includes Denoiser II and LUT Buddy.

I tried every one of them and had a lot of fun, not in the least because this is the first truly professional colour grading/looks suite that I don’t have to switch applications for to work with. The new Suite includes one completely new application, Magic Bullet Film, and new versions of Looks, Colorista, Mojo and Cosmo (which also for the first time runs within Final Cut Pro X). That’s the first big change - improvement in my book - that makes Magic Bullet Suite 12 a need-to-upgrade. It preferred Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premiere Pro or FCP 7. Until recently, Red Giant’s Magic Bullet Suite didn’t run from within Final Cut Pro X. Magic Bullet Suite apps are also faster and the interface fonts finally look perfect. You don’t need Adobe After Effects anymore to get perfect skin colour or to work with Colorista.

You can download the grabs here but you can also see them below, with their annotations to explain what I did and why, these are 4K resolution images so that 1080 video image sits in the middle with plenty of space for me to annotate.Īs always, I hope you find these useful and any comments are welcome.With Red Giant Magic Bullet Suite 12, you get a myriad ways to create perfect video in terms of colour accuracy, colour creativity and film emulation - in any editing environment, including Final Cut Pro X. Obviously there are better people in the world at this, who do far more to their images than I have, but these are grabs from an XF305, on a low budget short, graded with consumer priced software, which does have limitations but is ultimately amazing for the price.
I'm writing this up as I took a few grabs from the film to show Michael's college class how I altered each image to show them how you can alter images in grade to affect the mood and style of a scene. Also the plugin only selects a frame from your playhead position to give you a reference when grading, it's not a playable video clip and on a slow iMac like mine, playback is out of the question on un-rendered video that's been altered by third party software. It can be slow and doesn't allow you to check continuity between clips easily without closing the plugin first. One big downside to Magic Bullet, is that it is NOT a standalone programme, but in fact a plugin that works inside premiere, it essentially sits on your clip like a single filter and you need to open that each time you want to make adjustments. I'd purchased it to better my grading as I find the tools inside Premiere good but limiting, Magic Bullet allows you to change the exposure in certain areas of a frame and has better colour controls. I ended up cutting out around four minutes from what was originally an 18 minute film, and when I showed it to Michael he was unsure what I'd cut, which was essentially a lot of traveling and coverage we had to make sure we had room to play later.Īfter we were happy with the edit I started work on the grade, which was my first grading project using Magic Bullet Looks. I was initially the DoP so knew the footage well, and knew where there would be fixes to make also having a third party look at your edit can be very beneficial as the director can sometimes not see where cuts could be made to better the project. I offered to finish the film for Michael as I wanted it to be truly finished and Michael didn't have the time to complete it how he wanted. He was a little rushed for time and handed in what he could do in the time he had, the film was good but was essentially a first assembly with some tweaks and effects added to it it was still well received when screened though. We completed principal photography in January 2013 (after running over a little bit) and Michael got on with the post production which he did on his own. Since late 2012 I've been working on a film for my brother, it started off as his final project for his Masters degree and ended up being a bit of a passion project for myself.
