Hey guys, Think i have a lite Magic Bullet.....see screen shots in pics attached.

Just want some tips on what settings to tinker with for a grading novice.....need to keep it simple.

Attached pics of the settings plus the presets.

I know how to save the presets and all that but all the settings just make my mind go batty....lol.

I've got a handle on basic cc........3 way cc, secondary cc and levels/curves.........but i'd like to get some nice cinematic color looks to my stuff.....needless to say the stock MBL presets don't cut it.

That is an old version from several years ago.

Well, it's kind of like saying "I'd like to paint; what color should I use?" There are no general answers. It's all about your project and what's appropriate for it.
