Any alternatives to After Effects & Magic Bullet?

[cb1]

I'm looking to add a film look to a movie I shot with a DVX100, but am wondering if there are any programs besides After Effects & Magic Bullet that can give me a options for creating a film look? I am using premiere and am not sure if there is a plugin I can use for that or if there are any separate programs.

MBLooks will work within Premiere, at least up to CS4. Check with Red Giant for clarification.

Are you looking for alternatives to After Effects, Magic Bullet or both?

Video Copilot makes a similar plugin to Magic Bullet but it only works with AE CS4 (not CS5).

There's also Red Giant's Mojo, which I believe works with Premiere or AE.

If you have Vegas, you can also download the trials for Vasst. Even if you delete their software, you still get to keep the presets they used, some of which are very film-like.

Graham Nattress Film plugins for FCP. Has multiple looks, converts 60i to 24p reasonably well and is cheap.

Install MB in the Common Files and it will show up in AE and Premiere.

Installing MBP should install it as a common plugin, and it will work in Premiere too. Should also install something called 'Misfire', which will let you create an old film look - but that will only work in AE.

Your best bet is to finalize the picture edit, then put the old film effect on top in After Effects. I don't know of any other plugins that would work with Premiere.
