  Ongoing Photoshop titles to FC workflow

  Posted by Walter Miale on January 10, 2010 at 3:48 am

  This continues a thread started last week. Richard’s tips and the tutorials he referred me to are terrific.

  But. . .

  When I import and open the psd title slides in FC they look beautiful in their nested seq. But when I bring the title into the active timeline (rendering in ProRes doesn’t help) there is a perceptible loss of quality to the type. Same now with titles done with Sharp antialiasing and 720 x 480 size (for NTSC dv sd) and nonsquare pixels and an alpha channel. (BTW do I add the Alpha channel as the very last stage in PS?)

  Thanks!

  Save as layered TIFF
  Yes, add alpha last

  After editing (if using DV) switch sequence Codec

  Also… move this thread to PS forum
