    Hi,
    I hope someone can help. I have started a project which I am working on in 16:9 anormorphic. Its concert footage. The interviews have been shot 4:3. Please could anyone advise me of the correct settings (aspect ratio and motion tab) to convert my 4:3 into 16:9. I have captured the4:3 material in as 4:3. Working in a 16.9 sequence the aspect ratio for these clips comes out at 33.33. Is it enough to stretch it to make the value zero? This does fill the picture out to 16.9, or do I need to change the scale of image as well? I hope this makes sense. I would be gratful for any advise.
    Cheers

    The way i normally do it is like this.

    16×9 Sequence with 4×3 footage (pillarbox) make the 4×3 -33.33
    16×9 Sequence with 4×3 footage (titl and scan) make the 4×3 -33.33 and 120 scale (tilt and scan away !!!)

    Hope it helps

    PS I only work in PAL …
