  • 4K and 1080p footage in the same project?

    Posted by Philip Nidler on February 1, 2020 at 10:03 am

    I’m about to shoot some scenes for a video and I would like to combine 4K with 1080p footage. Is this possible when going into the editing process? If so, would it look strange having two different resolutions in the same video? (FYI I’m aiming to render the whole project in 25p to give it that cinematic feel).

    Thank you ☺

    Yes, if you set your project resolution to your desired output format and then set the clip properties to “fill” it will perform the upscale or downscale for you.

    Not really sure if I’m following here… where do I set the clips to “fill”? :/

    Thanks!

    You can select the clips in the timeline (even as a group by searching for them) and select “fill” in the spacial conform parameter of the inspector (the video inspector). It’s usually near the bottom.
