The Magic Bullet Looks masking controls allow for refinement of exactly how the effect is applied.Ī red mask makes for easy setup of windows. Once the look is built you can then use the different masking options in the Avid Effect Editor to further refine the correction and how it’s applied.
I won’t get into how you use MBL (try some of Red Giant Software’s tutorials for that) other than to say it is a lot of fun and you can spend hours experimenting. The Magic Bullet Looks application launches and the interface opens. Media Composer operation is simple: Apply the effect from the Effects Browser, open Effects Mode and click Edit Look… It has been around for a long time and provides unique tools with a unique interface to produce some really cool looks. Magic Bullet Looks is a stalwart of the post production plug-ins world. But there’s so many great 3rd party color tools it often feels like a limitation when there’s so few available for Media Composer. You certainly can do some fine color correction work with Media Composer’s Color Correction mode as there’s a lot of shows you watch on tv that are graded right inside Avid (though they are often finished on Symphony). Besides the fact it gives Media Composer 6 a great new supported plugin, first and foremost it’s at least one other color grading option inside Media Composer besides the built-in color tools. Beside offering full Mac OS X Lion compatibility the big news is that Magic Bullet Looks now runs in Avid Media Composer 6.įor Avid users this is big news. Red Giant Software must have been doing some work over the holidays (that or they’ve had a busy 2012 thus far) as just over week ago we saw an update to Magic Bullet Suite.
