HDV for Web Broadcast... why can't i get it to look good?
by e-money on Apr 30, 2007 at 10:55:29 pm

Hey Gang,

So i work for a news company and we're shooting HDV 1080i60. Once we're ready to output for the web we do a quicktime conversion, using FCP's Animation codec (at the highest levels possible) and then encode with adobe flash and convert it into a flash file (at about 448 kbps).

So here's my question. Why are our videos looking less than crystal clear? In fact, they look even more pixelated than an SD output. I'm convinced there must be something wrong with the way we're converting, but some people have mentioned that you must be more careful with lighting when it comes to web video. is this true? i'm used to judging exposure for film and television standards. do you think web video is entirely different?

any suggestions would help...
