Re: Export Dimensions
by Michael Hancock on Jun 30, 2008 at 9:45:33 pm

1) When I export to Sorenson, with the final product going to the web, I export to Square Pixels. This way, a circle will look like a circle on my computer screen. If I'm going to DVD, though, I keep it same as source - 720 x 480 non-square. I haven't had problems with this.

2) If you're 720 x 480 non-square in Avid, export a quicktime reference to AE (or same as source if AE is on another system), then make sure After Effects properly interprets it. Should be 720 x 480, .9 (Non-square, or 1.2 if widescreen), and lower field first. Render out to 720x480, lower field first, .9 (or 1.2 if widescreen anamorphic).

2.1) If you're rendering out of AE for Sorenson and your final deliver will square pixels (say, the Web), I would make a 720x540 or 640x480 comp, drop my final AE comp into there, and size to fit. Render to square pixels.

3) Not sure what you mean. Which app?

Hope this helps. And I hope I'm right about all of the above. It's what I've been doing, and so far it's been working great.


Michael.
