70’s and 80’s film emulation

You might want to check out Red Giant’s Magic Bullet Suite, or one of the individual plugins it contains.

correction: this was the second footage
or this one (forget about the black film scratches, I’m interested in what’s behind that):

hmm, I wouldn’t say they were film per say. I would say shot on high end phototube camera (for that time) and then graded magenta into shadows or red channel in curves. you can tell that the highlights were mostly skin tone line and whites somewhat still there. lumetri in premiere has a 2 way grader and curves built in. you can shoot with a tiffen diffuser for softness to get that ‘look’

Great will give your suggestion a try.
I like the physical filter idea, any other tricks or filter to mimic the effect?

[James Harris]

You think color grading in Magic Bullet alone would do the job?
Don’t you think something has to be done in hardware also like adding physical filters?

Hi James,

Take a look at these color presets and overlays, maybe it’s just what you’re looking for:
