1920x1080p footage to 730×480. What size sequence setting shoudl I use if I want to pan and zoom?
I have some 1920x1080p footage of a play. Everyone wants DVD’s and no Blu Ray, so I’ll be making 720×480 outputs.
What I would like to do, is have a copy of the footage under the original footage where I can do some pan and zooms for medium shots and close ups. And avoid as much noise as possible.
So, do I create a 720×480 sequqnce, drop in the 1080p, scale to frame size, and pan and zoom from there? Scaling down the footage shuold create little noise.
Or do I create a 1080p sequence and do pan and zooms and then output to DVD? I have some good denoiser plugins, but I think I should be able to get it pretty clean since the longest zoom will probably not come close to the 1080p native size.
Any suggestions woul be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Geoffrey

Yes, but…
d’ont scale to framesize, leave it as it is. Do your scaling (zooming in/out) manually.
Scale to framesize reduces the image to 100% of the frame.
For panning and zooming in you would be scaling up the image which causes qualityloss.———————————————–

Thanks for the quick response.
So if I already have a sequence @ 1080p with the footage in it (for Blu Ray that I now don’t need) and I want to drop the pan and zoom below it, should I copy all of the 1080p sequence footage (synced) to a 720×480 sequence, scale to frame THAT footage and then drop the pan and zoom footage below that and DON’T scale that to frame size?
Thanks,
Geoffrey
