RED GIANT "Magic Bullet Suite"

Mr. Neil.

I have a question please:

I Imported a Clip Into Premiere, and I did apply the Basic Adjustments such as Contrast, Highlights, Shadows, Inside the Premiere. Later Inside the Magic Bullet Suite, I added a Look. I would like to know when you are working with Magic Bullet, do you recommend to do the all the Basic color Corrections or Grading Inside the Magic Bullet, or Is It ok to do It In Premiere, and apply the Look In Magic Bullet, or going back and forth from Magic Bullet to Premiere.

Thank you very much.

Lumetri has some good tools now, and especially if you're using a control surface ... I've got the Tangent Elements panel ... and know the ins/outs you can actually work a decent enough 'grade' in it. I did a job last week, an 11-hour "slow video" grade for an editor just to push Lumetri & the Elements panel around, long enough to get enough annoyed to really mod the mapping of Pr to the Elements.

And the media was a mess ... all originally shot at full auto in a museum constantly moving the camera around looking at people, lighting changes, color shifts, yea ... a mess.

That said, if you have the full Magic Bullet suite, that includes a ton of things past 'basic' color correction/grading. Really an awesome extension of Pr.

I think you could get close to the same. But to duplicate what Magic Bullet Suite does you'd probably spend a lot of time effort.
