thanks Vince. You mentioned magic bullet. Do you think that the PREMIERE Plug-in is worht getting. if you want to make video look more like film will the premiere version do or do you need
to get the After Effects version. Thanks Gary

I don’t. I mean, you would be better off saving your money for lenses / lens adpters and lighting. Of course, that’s much more expensive…

I have used it, but I don’t own it. Most of what it does can be done with manual gamma and curve / level adjustments.

Magic bullet just makes presets out of those adjustments.

Anyway, I think it is worth owning if your footage is already up to PAR with a good film composition, but again, no miracles.

Cheers,

Vince

The after effects version is far better, but your best bet is to run your footage through after effects and use its native grain/noise removal tool (used to be Grain Surgery until it was bought by AE). Works great, but render times can be a bit long depending on what exactly you’re doing in noise removal.

Magic Bullet does have a ‘deartifacter’ plug in, but noise removal in AE is king. Also, I think you can use noise ninja in AE, but I’ve never used it.

cheers,

jt
