4:3 to 2.35:1

[Justin Leyba] “How can I make my 4:3 standard footage to 2.35:1 ratio? Like, what numbers should I put in my Pan/Crop Window?”

The answer hasn’t changed from the last time you asked: 😉

2.35:1 and Vimeo

It’s still simple math. The width for SD 4:3 is 640 and 640 / 2.35 = 272 so the height for a ratio of 2.35:1 is 272 with a Pixel Aspect Ratio of 1.0. Change your project properties to 640 x 272 PAR 1.0 then go into Pan Crop, right-click the frame and select Match Output Aspect.

In reading this thread, I have a question or two….

I have included some SD 4:3 footage in a HD project of 16:9. I simply used the pan crop tool to match the output aspect and the footage looked good and not distorted. So is that all I need to do to do this properly?

[Justin L.]

Haha silly me. I forgot about that forum. Thanks again John! =))

[John Rofrano]

Yes, all you need to do is use match output aspect since your project is already 16:9.

No worries… I thought I had seen that before. 😉
