  • jagged graphics when squeezing a 16:9 QT to Pal

    Hi,

    More and more clients are asking for Uncompressed Anamorphic Qt’s over digi’s up until now i haven’t had a problem. However the last spot i exported had turned the graphics to have a jagged edge. I find this confusing because I haven’t added the graphics they where already on the uncompressed QT passed over from our animation department. Whats even stranger is the 3D animation looks fine it just the graphics. The source file looks fine when played back in QT player. Below ive listed my settings and workflow any tips advice you can give me would be great. In the end i exported my slates and clock as individual clips and put them together with the spot in QT pro and squezzed them from there. In playback gefore i squeeze my 16:9 image to pal the graphics look jaggy on playback and smooth when the playhead stops. I if export in 16:9 there isn’t a problem it’s only when i squeeze to Pal

    In advice or tips you can give me would be great, Thanks in advance, Joe
