“From dazzling motion graphics and visual effects conceived with Trapcode Particular, to gorgeous film looks created with Magic Bullet Looks or finished in Magic Bullet Colorista, these suites have become indispensable tools for creatives.” “Red Giant Trapcode Suite and Magic Bullet Suite are two of the industry’s most beloved sets of filmmaking tools,” states David McGavran, Maxon CEO. Customers with an older version of Trapcode Suite or an individual Trapcode product, are encouraged to contact Maxon for special upgrade pricing and options. Subscribing customers will enjoy significant enhancements to the creative workflow these upgrades offer. Trapcode Suite 16 and Magic Bullet Suite 14 are also included as part of both the Red Giant Complete and Maxon One product bundles. Magic Bullet Suite 14 – a set of seven tools for color correction, finishing and film looks – includes new color workflows and powerful tools in Magic Bullet Looks and Magic Bullet Colorista.
Updates to Trapcode Suite – a set of 11 tools for particle simulation and 3D effects for motion graphics and VFX – include new physics models, behaviors and a new type of emitter in Trapcode Particular, plus smaller updates to Trapcode Form and Trapcode Mir.
That was when I decided to never ever anymore buy a plugin from them.Maxon announced two major new suite updates this week: Red Giant Trapcode Suite 16 and Red Giant Magic Bullet Suite 14. But when I then tried to claim any of those offered licenses - I just got silence. It was a very depressing thing to see how they just squeezed money out of them with almost zero effort into development.Īfter I complained to support several times about issues I had, they promised me to give me two licenses of my choice for free. Then came MB 3 with a completely new interface.Īnd all the other plugins they bought together over the years - most of them never got any improvements in a decade a longer. But still had random red screen errors during final rendering. And they did not ever care to do something about this. Then they brought GPU acceleration via OpenGL - but when I changed to a much better graphics card speed did not improve a bit. Also came with a lot of errors like clipping super whites, render bugs.
Then came MB II with a completely new interface - and zero backward compatibility so you had to redo everything in an old project.
Got an expensive license back then in 2005 for their first Magic Bullet plugin for AFX which was really nice. Just wanna add that my experience with Red Giant hasn't been great either over the years.
