Animated GIF for web from HDV file
I need to put an animated GIF on a webpage. The GIF should have the folliowing qualities:
1.60 pixels wide by 120 pixels tall
2.background white (matching webpage)
3. about 15 to 30 frames per second
4.about 3 seconds in duration
5. Original footage in HDV formatQuestions:
1. Should I shoot the talent against a white backdrop or bluescreen?
2. Which program accepts HDV files and outputs GIF animations at these frame rates?
3. I assume perfect uniform ligting will be critcal in order to make to GIF background mesh with the webpage background?
4.Alternatively is it possible to have a flash video (with audio) that auto loads with the webpage and then loops? The video must match the webpage background and not appear in a flash (or other) video player though.Macromedia Dreamweaver

1. Should I shoot the talent against a white backdrop or bluescreen?
Blue (or green) screen. It is easier to replace the green with white than to shoot on white and eliminate shadows.
2. Which program accepts HDV files and outputs GIF animations at these frame rates?
Premiere Pro will export animated GIF files (without audio) using Export Movie.
3. I assume perfect uniform ligting will be critcal in order to make to GIF background mesh with the webpage background?
Light the greenscreen correctlu and you should have a perfect white to work with.
4.Alternatively is it possible to have a flash video (with audio) that auto loads with the webpage and then loops? The video must match the webpage background and not appear in a flash (or other) video player though.
Yes. Many sites have such things. Usually advertising.
