Here's a QuickTip that will show you one way to process video with Plastic Bullet, an app designed to process still image only.

Plastic Bullet is a photo processing app for still images used to create the look of a photograph shot on a plastic toy camera. But that didn't stop Plastic Bullet lover Alan Dague-Greene from finding a way to make it process video for his project "Conversations in the Rain" which you can see below"

 


In this QuickTip Alan walks you through his process of going above and beyond to create something beautiful and moody using Plastic Bullet on video footage. It's a bit technical, and requires a few extra tools, but it will get you there if this look is a must-have in your project. And while Alan uses Motion, the masking and transitions can easily be done in After Effects.

Hi Alan,
I have a rather elementary question regarding Plastic Bullet. Once downloadedthe app store how do I use it on my desktop when it has an ,ipa extension?
Thanks.

You're the man. This is amazing, exactly what I have been searching for... I was loosing hope!! Since watching your tutorial I have Acquired both Keyboard Maestro and Default Folder X. I was wondering if you have a source for a walk through of how to set up KM and DF for this process. If you have anywhere I could look or if you have a quick video somewhere, that would be amazing. In the meantime I'll stumble my way through and figure it out.
Again, this is going to be really helpful. Thanks!!!
