The first thing I have to say about FilmConvert\u2019s Premiere Pro plugin is just how easy it is to instantly achieve great looking results. This can\u2019t be overstated. This is what you\u2019re paying for the plugin to do and it does it, and does it very well…<\/p>\n

At $149 dollars the Adobe Premiere Pro plugin from FilmConvert is a reasonably priced and extremely effective film emulation plugin. It does what you need it to do, which is to create great looking results with very little effort.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In the second half of his review, he takes you through step-by-step in the FilmConvert settings to show how to create a perfect film look, starting with ungraded footage straight from the camera.<\/p>\n

He also shares some of his own tips and tricks for efficient editing and workflow, both in FilmConvert and the Premiere interface.<\/p>\n
