  • How To Key Frame Magic Bullet Looks 2

    I’m sure I’m missing something, but how do you keyframe Magic Bullet Looks 2 in Sony Vegas?

    Here is what I was seeing:

    I added a “look” to a clip, then closed MBL, added a keyframe at a different location and open(by clicking edit)and MBL opens again but with the same preview picture as before. This make it impossible to see what I’m doing. For example, lets say I want to move the spotlight tool to a different location in the clip at the 2nd keyframe but when I open MBL at the 2nd keyframe the preview picture is not where I want to make the change.

    Any thoughts?

    Magic Bullet Looks is not keyframable friendly like other plugins.
    What you need to do is select sync cursor at the bottom of the
    looks pop up window. Then you can see and judge your keyframed looks
    better. And also remember Looks uses as preview where the cursor is.
    Knowing these makes it easier.
