Very nice, I also feel like I've heard this before. Is it from The Royal Tenenbaums?? When Luke Wilson's character is sitting on a couch in Owen Wilson's character's apartment? There's a huge painting behind him....

I've not seen that movie, so I don't know. I just learned about Satie on the recommendation of Marq Feist, a friend of my credited here on the video.

It is the same song playing in that scene in Royal Tenenbaums, Michael. Great observation. Wes Anderson & Co. do an excellent job in selecting the music for their movies.

Final Cut Pro + Magic Bullet Looks = Fun

...ah, I see, you applied Magic Bullet Looks.
I know that makes big difference.

Well, I only got Final Cut Express, not Pro, but I read somewhere that Magic Bullet Looks can be used with Final Cut Express, too.
I hope to get that stuff some day, because the videos that I find beautiful here, including this one, of course, are so often treated with Magic Bullet Looks.

I'm pretty sure MBL works with FCE. Color correcting/grading or whatever you call it really helps. I mean, I run all my pictures through Aperture on my Mac before posting them to Flickr. Might as well do the same with the video.

"I'm pretty sure MBL works with FCE."

I wouldn't mind some verification on this point. I also have only FCE and looked all over the Magic Bullet site. Nowhere is there any mention of FCE. That's usually my first tip off not to spend $399 on something.

Plus I only have an iMac, and was told that isn't even a powerfull enough mac to run FCP well. So I guess tools like this are about $4200 more than I've already spent. And my pockets are getting a bit empty already.

If anyone can attest to MBL actually working with FCE, I'd like to know. I'm not going to assume their web site just forgot to mention compatibility.

Yeah, I guess I misspoke. I don't see it mentioned anywhere that MBL works with Express. Sorry.

Thank's guys!

I'm pretty sure we just used the basic automatic setting, to be honest. The real magic is found in composition of shots, editing, and color grading – just like in photographs.
