comp preset for HD 720p
by Varangian on Aug 23, 2007 at 2:36:16 pm

I am animating a spot that needs to be output to:

HD - D5
720P/59.94

I do not see a preset for this.
The closest preset is HDV/HDTV 720 29.97

what should my comp setting be?

thx!

Does this help? Found it on the web by Googling D5, 720p and "after effects".

you can easily just change the frame rate to 59.94... d5 at 720 will work with that frame rate.

what i'm a little unsure about is the pixel aspect ratio... since i don't know what the par is for d5, i would use a square pixel comp (1280x720, square px)... it's always easier to scale it down if it is a 1.3 par (960x720, 1.3 px). and, as gets pointed out here often, some effects are not non-square px friendly anyway.
