  Problems Compositing Animation w/ Alpha and AIC footage

  Posted by Derek Rottman on July 18, 2009 at 2:02 am

  Working on a timeline using the AIC codec. After exporting the lower third out of AE with an Animation w/ Alpha codec I get this stutter at the end of the graphic:

  It’s almost like it jumps back 2-3 of video when it comes out of the lower third…

  As far as I can figure the framerates are the same…I’m at a loss…I’m becoming less of a fan of the 5D Mark II.

  Any ideas?

  Hi Derek,
  I think that the best way to work with the 5D, is to transcode the clips to Proress (keeping all the setting: Size, pixels aspect, field order) and then conforming the stuff in CinemaTools.

  Almost every time I’ve run into this problem it’s because the clip that ‘jumps’ isn’t completely kosher. If you re-export the source clip same as source and drop that new clip in the timeline I bet it will play fine under the graphic.
