Description
Desert sunrise, Arctic tundra, nighttime urban streets: the look of your footage defines the mood. Now you can define the style of your video or film, regardless of on-set conditions, with powerful imaging tools. Choose from 100+ Look presets, to help set the mood for everything from a wedding to the next Sundance original. You also get the standalone Magic Bullet LooksBuilder, for pre-visualizing looks on set or anywhere. Portable presets load into any editing hosts, so the same Looks you create on set are the ones you finish with in the editorial suite: no need for an expensive finishing system.

Highlights
A Designer's Interface
For the first time, you can design and refine a look with a user experience that balances ease of use with the power of 36 distinct Look Tools. The new interface offers Quick Drawers for accessing tools and presets without taking up valuable space. Tool controls keep clutter to a minimum. Also, a linear-light processing engine provides fluid interaction using the power of your graphics card.
100-Look Library
More than one hundred unique Looks, conveniently organized by category in the Look Library, are a great starting point for defining the mood of any scene. The presets range from simple exposure and film process emulation to radical color changes. Best of all you can use the Look Theater to browse through the library using your own images — finding a look couldn't be easier.
Looks with Legs
Magic Bullet Looks works as both a plug-in and a standalone application. The LooksBuilder plug-in accesses presets and renders looks inside a variety of popular editing software packages. The application lets you refine and create looks anywhere, from on set to your edit suite, using any image as a foundation. Go from pre-visualization to final output, all with the same look.
Examples
Binary Transition
This transition uses a combination of Trapcode Form for the numbers, Trapcode Shine for the light rays, and Magic Bullet Looks for the color change. (from RGTV Ep. 1 & 2)
Film Noir Traffic
This Film Noir-inspired shot uses a lot of our products! Red Giant Text Anarchy creates the traffic patterns in the background. PlaneSpace tiles the traffic pattern over and over again. Key Correct Pro Light Wrap aids in compositing the actor over the glowing background. Magic Bullet Looks helps the composite by bringing all of the colors together. (from RGTV Ep. 10)
Sci-Fi Particles
This Motion Graphics background uses Trapcode Particular for the particles. It uses Magic Bullet Looks to create the green colorization, the glow, the blur, and the vignette.
Video Speed and Colors to Music
This video uses Trapcode Sound Keys to make the video play faster on the music beat. Magic Bullet Looks is used to control the colors of the video based on the Sound Keys-generated opacity keyframes. View: Red Giant TV Episode 6
