[@TyroneLT]

This guy cartwheeled right around the $1000 one-time price tag lol! That being said, it is worth it if you're serious about this kind of work. This plug-in is legit. I never thought about using it for photos. That's a great tip!

[@impatrickt]

I do it annually because it’s better for expenses. Time is money.

[@ratt57]

I got through half the video until I learned it's useless to those of us who use Premiere Pro.

[@Mastertist]

And also it is only for macOs. So not for me. But super cool plugin though.

[@proxy7874]

​@@Mastertist no lol, also available for windows

@@impatricktannually, tf? In my day, when you bought the software, you owned it. One and done. Everyone can get wrecked on this sub model horse shit.

Woah, apparently i didn't try hard enough to learn filmbox's existence. Thank you for this video, life-changing video. Instant subscribed, your short film is the best short film (film emulation) that I have watched so far. Love it!

[@kevinwells4986]

Thanks Patrick. I'm getting to all of this a little bit late in life. I've only used programs such as Final Cut, and Adobe Premier as a complete amateur, and admired others people work. I did it as a hobby, for fun and family. I started to get into Lightroom, but then ran out of time so to speak. Retired now, etc., I still want to play around with this. I did not know this software until watching this, so thanks! I did look up the pricing, and I'll probably wait awhile at least. But it was great to watch you play with it.

[@MarkHoltze]

0:00 I grew up tobogganing on that hill, ice skating on the ourdoor rink (not there now) and playing hockey in that Arena across the street. The style of the video is my childhood and I don't even know it. FilmBox is pretty powerful little tool there, I love that 16mm look. Watching digital films for so long, then going back to the older classics (35 stuff) and seeing the grain patterns is crazy to think that was normal at the time. Going to watch the extended for more childhood. Nice video dude!

Bought it last week and by far my favourite plugin as well. I am working on home video for Christmas couple weeks ago and still editing it and liking what i am seeing from the plugin.

[@chrisjohnsonfilms]

also, keep bringing these mini movies out. They are my favourite thing to look forward to lately.

[@impatrickt]

🙏🙏🙏

[@Volksgeist]

Oh shit I've been waiting for this

[@spyhardman]

This plugin looks legit. I've been tinkering around with the demo version, and it makes a compelling case. It seems weird how little coverage there is on it on KZbin and elsewhere. I assume it's simply that they aren't flinging codes all over the place to drum up interest. I kinda respect it, because there aren't a million suspicious puff pieces about it, like you get with so many gear and software launches. I don't know where I'm going with this, but it's making me reflect on the weird state of marketing (yuck) these days. Anyway, great video.

[@impatrickt]

one of my friends is a DIT for some major streaming shows/movies and he first told me about it about a year ago. im kinda glad its not a "KZbin" plugin. seems like its only being used on pro jobs so far and the price reflects that. their scatter/diffusion plugin is very widely used as well.

[@jerry.cray_II]

Your short film looked absolutely amazing!! Loving your content man! Thank you!

[@impatrickt]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Great short! The whole grandma Fez opening of the new Euphoria made me want filmic everything

Orange coat plug in! It’s nice having the controls through this to get your own “look” without looking like everyone else’s if using a LUT

[@brenshaw]

Appreciate it!

[@azchamone]

Was wondering what the Twitter and IG posts were leading to… this plug-in is something I can definitely get on board with. Stellar work as always dude

[@impatrickt]

The lite version still does a lot!

[@NicholasLeicht]

If you told me the short film in the beginning was actually shot on film, I would have believed you! It’s a bummer they don’t have Windows support yet. However, even if they did, it might be a little while before I buy a license 😅 Editing photos inside of resolve is an interesting idea, never really thought of it. It makes sense though if you want to colour match jpgs with video. I enjoyed this longer video, well done :)

[@reys27]

I think I love you. Thank you for showing me this opportunity to recreate a cinematic look to my frames. I was looking for it for a lifetime.

[@jasonnowwhat5041]

This looks like a fantastic tool. As a final cut user exclusively I emailed them to ask about future support. I’ve used film convert and never really loved my results. Ugh…now you have me contemplating this dual editor workflow.

[@impatrickt]

FCP just sucks in general for color and I just gave up on trying to make it work. Resolve is 10 years ahead of Apple here.

[@luisedtr07]

@@impatrickt Dude do you have a video on your FCP to Resolve workflow? I'm breaking my head right now because I feel the same way T_T

[@agustinbadariotto]

If one day I made a movie, it would definitely have the emulated look of the film. I really don't know very well why in the industry this is not done very often, that leaves me confused, the aspect of the film is simply BEAUTIFUL

[@MyHunter9090]

Had some Fargo season 1 vibes in the intro. I love it so much

[@FilmDad]

I've watched this movie before (I'm Thinking of Ending Things). I personally loved it, but I definitely understand that it isn't for everyone and can see why it wasn't popular. This is a great video btw. It's helped a lot!

Haha! Great short film! Love it! And "thinking of ending things" is also great! Funny, scary, weird and... a lot of things! :))

Okay, so I just watched the Short Film Challenge with Gerold Undone and Lee and you and I sub'd to your channel because you seem to know what you're doing by your speak (never a real indicator...) and watching this I'm immediately struck by the horrible paper sounds as you munch Taco Bell shit. What. The. Hell. Kind of Foley is that? Hahaha... Anyway, just thought I'd rib you on that. Only had a second after watching the vids from the challenge and going way overtime (gotta get in and do dinner with my wife), but I'll be checking you out more soon. I didn't even watch this whole thing ('cause, like I said, I'm on a time budget and gotta jam) but I will. The Challenge was cool, many great videos, many that had me scratching my head. Good on ya for supporting new filmmakers.

[@impatrickt]

thats literally the audio of the Taco Bell in camera. you good? the only ADR was outside on the bench.

What LUTs have you used before using Filmbox, I'm not ready to pay that kind of money for the type of content I make.

Hey man , I’m trying filmbox lite out right now from your recommendation, I also edit in Final Cut Pro and bringing video to resolve to use resolve , did you export video from Final Cut Pro in ProRes 422 ? Or something else .. I just edit my video in slog3 footage and then I exported in ProRes 422 and then brought it into resolve , it looks good just making sure this is the best option ! Thanks ! Love your vids

Hey man !! I’ve been using filmbox from your recommendation! I do the same thing you do , edit in Final Cut and bring it into resolve , but do you bounce your video in 4k or 1080 from Final Cut ?! Thanks 🙏🏽 love the channel , big fan

[@ekphotography]

Could you do a round trip FCPX to Resolve video? Since you have a Sony camera I am wondering exactly how you do that successfully..You said you export a pores but how do you do correct color grading or exposure on the individual clips, I see you just imported the whole clip..? Thanks

[@MarcyMoe]

could you pls tell us how we can add the free Plugin in my Davinci resolve?! Or is there a step by step video on youtube? That would be great, appreciate it! Best regards

You just install the plug-in and it’s added to your effects panel

[@ekphotography]

They never made a lite version to try but I already have Dehancer which is very similar and way less expensive.

[@rewdotkim]

Looks like fun, especially on the photo side. Can't wait for the Windows version to become available so I can try it -- thanks for the showcase!

I dont think they have any plans for windows. time to get a Mac!

[@SamGaleFilms]

Was surprised that I caught the film reference really quickly.

[@MarcusWarnerMusic]

I'm not really sure I understand the hype behind this; don't get me wrong it looks amazing, but for the price it seems a bit lacking in features. Maybe I just missed it, or you skipped these things in the video, but was there really no 8mm film? Even the Halation plugin in resolve has a bunch of controls for fine tuning that I didn't see here. Are you just paying for the convenience basically?

Geeezz... I'm kinda in love with Filmbox now. You sold me mon ami. PLUS I'm such a fan of that 4:3 ratio. When editing for images, are you simply copy and pasting the actual effect from one image to the other, or can you copy the adjustments, (like develop settings) ? Thank you x10

Do you find that you have to under expose your log footage to use film box? I typically over expose my v-log footage by 1.5+ stops and noticed film box blows my highlights out. I guess I can just add a node before the film box node to correct. Curious what you do.
