Magic Bullet & FCP
Question, I just shot a music video on the Panasonic AG-DVX100 in the F5 mode (this is the mode that looks like the F6 24p but is not) it looks great, but I would love for it to look like it was shot on film, I would like it to look as close to a MTV video as possible, it looks good right now with the 24p look, if I bought Magic Bullet for final cut pro, would this plug in help me acheive the film music video look I really want ??
thanks -

Shot on a DVX100, and used Nattress FIlm Effects. That shows you what you can do with my software, and it’s a fraction of the price of the competition. Here’s the story behind that music video.
“”Just wanted to drop you a line and thank you for your wonderful Film Effects package. Last spring I was hired to direct a music video for Universal Music artists The Features. It was a very tight turnaround and I couldn’t get the film I wanted Fed Ex’d to me in time for the shoot, so I went with my trusty DVX 100a in anamorphic. Being very careful to maintain a good DoF we shot the video and went to post. After we had a lock on the video I went in and started tweaking the look with Film Effects. I ended up settling on a nice 70’s look and sent it off to Universal for approval. They loved it. When it came time to deliver I sent them a master of the video and the three DV tapes I shot. They called me saying that they needed the original negatives and the telecine transfer tape before they’d release my check. I told them that I don’t have the negatives… “well you need to get them from the transfer house” they said. I told them they didn’t understand, I shot the video on video and before they ask for the HD tape, the mini dv tapes in your possession are the originals. They could not believe that the video was shot on tape. Your plug ins were that last little something that put the video over the edge and pulled the wool over the eyes of a major record label! Thanks!”- Chad Denning Peace Frog Productions

Poopy on Magic Bullet!
Buy set. I use Graeme’s Film Effects all the time. I’ve also used Sapphire’s film look plug ins, & I like Graeme’s better.
