I'm looking to buy filters for my video. But i dont know which to buy as there are many on the internet. Can anyone advice me on which is better? My requirement is to have a more saturated and dreamy feeling to my video. Thanks!

you actually dont have to waste money buying filters. If your using FCP just use Gaussian blur to create the dreamy effect then use the color corrector to make the colors more saturated.

Hope this helps

I've looked through the website, but there are so many types in magic bullet. Dont know which suits me better. Are you using magic bullet?

Just buy the BCC (BorisFX) filters. BCC Glow works very well. Or Gaussian blur a lower duplicate layer and use the eight point garbage matte for the top layer. Feather edges and voila!
