  Scaling footage in multiscreen display

  Posted by Matt Holland on February 18, 2015 at 5:17 am

  Hello –

  I’m in the process on developing content for a rather large video display at an up coming trade show. Here are the dimensions I’m working with in AE:

  9 screens high x 1 screen (960 x 4888)
  6 screen high x 1 screen (960 x 3254)

  These will be scaled 2x to fill the 1920×1080 screens.

  I have been asked to include some footage (1920×1080) in the columns but I’m concerned that the scaling involved will leave us with a nasty looking final product. The footage will essentially be scaled up 6x. Of course, the intent is that these columns will be viewed from a distance. Should I avoid scaling or not? Should I opt for 4K stock footage instead?

  Thanks so much!
