Honesty love the products this company makes, but was concerned about compatibility w/ my new M1. I did have some issues, but I went to website, got an agent to assist and within a minute the issue was fixed and I was back up and running....if only all software developers were this responsive and easy to deal with. Thank you Pixel Film Studios!

If you use FCP you need to check this out!

I've been looking for plug-ins for FCP and was so happy to find this company. I do a one camera shoot so when I saw FCPX Camera and realized it would make my videos look a million times better and like I have a camera person shooting it, I HAD TO buy it. I also got the social media pack which is a lot of fun. Super easy to use and download.

Great time saver and creativity booster

Great time saver and creativity booster

PFS PlugIns are providing real value to my video creation process. Especially while trying new things and styles it is soooo helpful to have a set of tools ready to get used to provide quick results. I'm really recommending these plugins with a good price that exceeds the value you're getting out of it.

I have been very pleased using Pixel Film Studio plug ins. They have saved me a significant amount of time in editing and allowed me to add additional flair to projects. The customer support has been very helpful and honestly couldn't recommend them enough. Obviously some plug-ins have more value than others and your needs will vary from mine but I'm sure there is at least one that you could benefit from.

I have many of their products

I have many of their products, and they are first-class, easy to use, well-designed, and save you a ton of time. They have a plug-in to do just about anything! On top of all this, they are reasonably priced. Finally, they have a support chat section that people respond to and help you when you need something. BRAVO Pixel Film Studios.

Not overpriced

I like that the plugins are not overpriced. Customer support is awesome with life chat option. The flexibility of titles could be improved though.

I love Pixel Film Studios' plugins, and I also love their support! It's such a great company. Firstly, their transitions and titles are terrific, and I've used them on several professional and personal projects. Secondly, their support is outstanding. They are patient and know their stuff.

I am delighted with my new PixelFilm Plugs!

In my beginnings in Final Cut they have given me a lot of creativity, they are practical, comfortable and with very good results. In addition, of all the installations I only had one incident with one installation and a support agent solved it quickly and comfortably through the chat in three minutes. Fantastic!

Great Product and Support

I have enjoyed using my plugins for FinalCutX since 2016. Most of the plugins I have downloaded have been very easy to use and the effects have made my videos stand out. The support is excellent and knowledgable! When I got a new computer and was not able to trouble shoot the issues on my own, the support stayed on the chat with me until I was fully functional again. This is a company that has excellent effects and great support. It is easy to find your downloads on their site for whenever you need them again. No regrets in these purchases.

FCPX Editing Suite Bundle

I bought the FCPX Editing Suite Bundle. I love the Stabilization and Defocus. I do real estate videos and I sometimes have shaky shots and want the subject to be in the center and it makes it look so nice. Also, I love the defocus feature because I get caught in the mirrors so I can easily track myself with key framing individually. Also can't wait to use the PIP to highlight certain features in the house.
