The mMessage2 pack is the second of motionVFX’s stellar user interface plugins for FCPX. If you’ve ever had to edit a video that needed some type of user interface animation, whether it’s a phone, a tablet, or a laptop, you know how slow it can be to create those animations while flying through your edit. If you’re used to using Premiere Pro’s Warp Stabilizer, this should be a very handy addition to your FXPX tool kit. It claims to be up to 12 times faster and more accurate than the FCPX built-in stabilizer, so in my opinion, it’s a must-have for any editor. Need a powerful and easy-to-use stabilizer in FCPX? Then look at CoreMelt’s Lock & Load. They make every step of the color grading process easy and unintimidating. Some of the key features in this plugin are the tools like False Colors, Look Transfer Tool, and the Xrite ColorChecker. With its 90 built-in “Hollywood” looks, it’s perfect for first looks and realtime LUTs previews. One of the best color grading plugins around, Cinema Grade is great for both beginners and experts. (All the plugins on this list cost money, so if you’re interested in a few free FCPX plugins, check out our list here.) They are your friends, and they’re here to help. They offer shortcuts and workarounds for problems that would normally take several hours to address. So, if these nonlinear editing applications are already complicated enough, why should you complicate things even more? Plugins make your life easier. (Was that too nerdy?)

To put it plainly, plugins are components added to an application that allow you to do additional things in your edit. Plugins are add-on components that expand the capabilities of an application.
