    I just am finishing a one hour forty minute project. I used Magic Bullet extensively and everyone who saw it commented on the great looks.

    use majic bullet for color grading. even the ones that come free with Vegas are pretty good. Vegas can also do light-rays, though that may not accomplish exactly what you want, it depends on the source video. If you want some very well-priced effects software go over to http://www.fxhome.com and check out their lineup. Its not AfterEffects by any means, but it offers easy-to-use visual effects creation at a far cheaper price.

    I’ll second that about fxhome. Effects Lab Pro has some good features at a good price.

    The low-cost way is use Vegas. Duplicate your clip on another track, do a “glow” or “blur with color curves,” exaggerate what you want, then cookie cutter the area you want in and use the opacity slider to adjust to what you want – a combination of the two.

    Another approach is download trial versions of Magic Bullet and apply the looks. Effects Lab Pro also has a trial version.
