Jack Niedenthalsubtitles in 16:9
by on Jun 12, 2012 at 11:40:25 pm

I know this may be an off the wall question, but when you do a film in 16:9 and watch it on a TV it gives you black bands (letterbox) on the TV. Is their a way to utilize the bottom black band for subtitling? I guess I am asking if there is a way to subtitle below a film shot in 16:9 so the words come out on the black band at the bottom of the screen.

Before I used to shoot 4:3 and then use a widescreen effect so I could easily add clear subtitles.

Any suggestions about subtitling in a 16:9 format would be appreciated.
