Final Cut Pro Plug-in's


Ok folks - you asked for it. There are a couple of things that have bugged me about Final Cut Pro. The main one was a lack of an easy way to vignette a shot. So I present to you my easy vignette plug-in.

Just download the zip file from here and copy the contents of the zip into:

Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro System Support/Plugins

The plug-in then appears in the 'color correction' effects tab. Have a play - I may post a tutorial at a later date, but don't count on it.

It comes with no warranty or money back guarantees.. It has not been tested with Final Cut Pro 5 and doesn't work with the 32-bit render option (blame Apple). But it has been used on TV shows for channel 7 & 10 as well as a fair few commercials - so it can't be that bad.

There is also the 'Facelight' plug-in which is a fast way to make under-exposed faces look prettier. But more on that later.

These have saved me a great deal of time and my hat is off to you. Heard about this on the podcast...(think it was digital buzz..but I listen to a lot of video ones so could be wrong). One of the best plug-ins I've downloaded.
Thanks!

I always thought this effect should come standard with final cut. Now it does. Thanks for your hard work (and thanks for sharing it).

Marcus,

You saved my arse dude!
Just got back from a shoot and I thought I had captured the perfect interview shots - artsy, etc. When I digitized my shots into FCP they were way to dark. Your 'Face Light" filter saved me. Best filter out there - Period!!!
Thanks again,
Ken - Nashville
