Magic Bullet Renoiser

Renoiser is an entirely new product that gives footage a cinematic texture and grain. Whether you’ve denoised your video, created CGI and motion graphics compositions, or even shot on a camera that produces virtually noiseless footage, Renoiser’s all-new, realtime, GPU-accelerated grain engine rebuilds your footage with a cinematic texture more genuine than anything seen before. Renoiser is fully-customizable, and includes 16 noise/grain presets based on real film stocks such as 16MM, 8MM and much more. Renoiser supports OpenGL/OpenCL (Adobe Mercury Playback), so it all happens in real time.

Here are some great ways to use Renoiser:

Magic Bullet Film 1.2

This update to our tool for giving footage the look and color of real motion picture film brings OpenGL/OpenCL support. Magic Bullet Film 1.2 emulates the entire photochemical process – from the original film negative, to color grading, and finally to the print stock – but thanks to Mercury playback, you don’t have to wait to develop your footage, because it all plays back and renders in real time. Magic Bullet Film 1.2 is a FREE update to Magic Bullet Film 1.0.

• GPU: OpenGL/OpenCL (Mercury Playback)

NOTE: Magic Bullet LUT Buddy has been discontinued. Read more in our FAQ. It’s worth noting that both Magic Bullet Looks and Colorista can both load LUTs.
