VASST, Celluloid and Reelpak-1

vitalforce wrote on 8/19/2005, 8:47 PM

I emailed VASST but was hoping to get a quicker answer on this forum to continue working tonight. Just purchased and downloaded Celluloid and see the 6 film looks that download with it. Anyone familiar with how I add the 15 Reelpak-1 filmlooks without paying an extra $25 for them?

You should receive two emails after you purchase Celluloid. The first one confirms your credit card payment. The second one has a link to ReelPak-1 that will unlock with your Celluloid key. Look for that second email. If you can’t find it, email me (jrofrano at vasst dot com) and I’ll get you the link.

I got 2 emails, used the same license code for both programs downloaded & installed separately, and I think I'm in business. (Using both V5 and V6).

P.S. The Pushed 16mm setting is particularly great. Just a few tweaks for my 24p DVX100 footage and the picture (feature-length WWII love story, on V5) looks so good that I can omit a lot of the event tweaks in the project, i.e., I have to GO BACK AND REDO ALL THE COLOR CORRECTION ARRGH! But it's a GOOD pain.

I should have bought this when it first came out. Oh me of little faith. Great product, JohnnyRoy.

Or should I say great product, David Jimerson?

Actually, Pushed 16 was a preset that Spot created. He did the 6 that come with Celluloid (with the prefix RP-0). David Jimerson did all of the other 5 ReelPaks (RP-1 thru RP-5). I did the software development so it was definitely a joint effort between Spot, David, and myself. You are very welcome. Enjoy.

(I'm also vitalforce on another computer.) Not to belabor the point but Kudos to Spot as well then. I especially relish the fact that clicking on the Celluloid selection simply inserts Vegas plugins with specific settings in a given order. Not only did I learn in a flash why the setting works so well (by viewing each plugin setting), but it's tweakable/customizable, unlike a certain other plugin that ships with V5 & V6.

At the risk of hijacking my own post, might someone also comment briefly on how the VASST FM plugin for audio mastering is configured? I have a feeling I need that one too, but there's not a lot of info on this in the VASST page.

Vital/editor,
We just recently reconfigured FM/Final Master, and haven't started letting the world know it's a reconfigured/updated application, mostly because we've been letting folks know about GearShift and US2. It's the same as the Audio tab on the US2, and comes the iZotope plugin bundle that was created especially for VASST, licenced from iZotope.
The presets were created by myself and Jeffrey P. Fisher, based around dialog, track options, master output, bus needs, and sound design.

Fantastic, DSE. Wish I'd had the chance to meet you at the last NYC event. These contributions to the industry are vasstly appreciated (sorry).
