Rarely do you come across as complete a makeover of an application, as I am witness to with the Magic Bullet Looks. Usually they include some different features or improve its efficiency. Most of us have seen interesting upgrades from time to time. And then there is the star of the suite, Magic Bullet Looks that may be purchased for $399.00 separately. The Magic Bullet Colorista version 1.0 sells for $199.00, as does the Magic Bullet Frames version 1.0. I do wish that it were a bit easier to utilize as it takes some time to do the conversion, but once completed, the results were excellent. I have not gone back to Instant HD for the purpose of this review but it did its job very well up-converting Standard Definition footage to HD. The first of the four is Red Giant's Instant HD which I reviewed here June, 2006 and sells for $99.00 as an individual application.
Each application can be bought separately, but if you don't have any of them, then I would certainly consider purchasing the suite in its' entirety.
Magic Bullet Looks, MB Frames, MB Colorista and Instant HD make up the entire suite. In the new Magic Bullet Suite you are actually getting four separate applications which can be used in Final Cut Pro, Motion 3, Adobe After Effects, or all three. Don't let that $799.00 scare you off before you read this.
