The power mask is gone, because the developers decided to rely on the new built-in masking that’s part of Premiere Pro CC and Final Cut Pro X. With Colorista III, Red Giant decided to simplify the plug-in by including one level of primary grading, curves, a keyer, and HSL secondary adjustments. ![]() It had master, primary, and secondary grading, plus curves, a power mask, and keyer. The earlier version of Colorista was a feature-packed plug-in that functioned like a mini-grading application. This is likely an issue with FCP X’s color pipeline when an external program is involved. When I imported LUTs into Looks with FCP X, the result was a lot more extreme than in the Adobe applications. It’s pretty solid in the Adobe applications, but color management with FCP X is quirky. Importing LUTs into Looks doesn’t seem to work perfectly. The latter adds a very intuitive luma range graph to easily change the crossover points between lo/mid and mid/hi. New tool modules have been added, such as a LUT tool and a 4-way color corrector. The 3.1 update added a Trackpad Mode, enabling you to use a laptop or standalone trackpad like a control surface. Red Giant has created many new preset looks based on popular film and TV show treatments. In addition, this will also preview the various tool modules used to create the look. In 3.0 and 3.1, you can now hover the mouse over the various preset looks and the larger Looks viewer will be updated to preview that look on your frame. The frame that you are parked on becomes the reference frame to which you apply your looks. As before, it runs as a separate application that opens whenever you launch the interface from the clip on the timeline. The interface design has been flattened and streamlined. It includes tool modules for color correction, lens effects, relighting, and a lot more. Magic Bullet Looks is a popular go-to plug-in for sophisticated stylization of an image. If you already installed version 12.0, you’ll need to download and reinstall 12.1 in order to add the plug-ins into new hosts, like Resolve 12. Depending on your toolkit, you might opt for one or two of the individual plug-ins rather than the entire suite. Avid Media Composer is only compatible with Looks and Resolve gets Mojo, Film, Looks, and Cosmo. For example, everything installs into Adobe Premiere Pro CC and After Effects CC, but Final Cut Pro X only gets Colorista, Looks, Cosmo, Film, and Mojo. However, check the compatibility list for your particular NLE. A single installation of the suite will install the plug-ins into as many application hosts as you have on your system. The new update adds OpenFX compatibility.Īlong with feature and interface changes, Red Giant has also focused on performance improvements across the board, as well as bringing more of the tools into new hosts like Apple Final Cut Pro X. The suite now includes Magic Bullet Looks 3.0, Magic Bullet Colorista III, Magic Bullet Film 1.0, Magic Bullet Mojo 2.0, Magic Bullet Cosmo 2.0, Denoiser II, and LUT Buddy. Popular tools have been streamlined along with the addition of a brand new film emulation tool. the latest version of Magic Bullet seems to be 15.0.but the version I am licensed to use is 14.5.however when clicking "Install" I had 2 options: "Latest Version" and "Other Versions".after trying "Latest" and it not getting rid of the X, I clicked "Other Versions" and 14.5 isn't even listed as an option. How is that possible though if I JUST purchased a perpetual license for Magic Bullet today? $1K went out of my account and I cannot seem to use this plugin without seeing a giant red X over my frames! Has anyone figured this out? Any and all help would be SO APPRECIATED. ![]() After lots of frustrated googling, I came across an article that said Maxon has discontinued offering a perpetual license for the Magic Bullet suite, as well as some others as of earlier this month (I think Sept. I login to my account on, and under "Licenses" it does show that I own a license for this suite.but even after ignoring the prompt that tells me I don't own the license, installing the plugin anyway, and launching Premier Pro.any clip I use one of these effects on shows the big red X watermark as if I'm in trial mode. I tried resetting everything in the Maxon App, which gave me hope as it showed a bunch of green circled check marks to the right of each item in the suite (instead of the gray ones that it showed previously-also when I hover over each green check mark it says "Perpetual License"), but when when I click "Install" > "Latest Version", it tells me I don't own a license to this entire suite. Now I have no idea how to start using my license. Just today, I purchased a perpetual license for the Magic Bullet suite ($1K) after downloading the Maxon App and installing the trial version.
