  • Best compression for projecting on to a screen

    Posted by Roberto Baggio on May 2, 2008 at 3:56 pm

    Can anyone advise me on the best codec/compression to use and if I should use QT, AVI or DVD to project onto a 10x7ft screen. Obviously, I need the quality to remain in tact. The audience is around 90 people.

    I am rendering 3D animation (720×576) and using Sorenson 3 compression in Max and Premiere.

    Many thanks in advance guys.

    A DVD is often more dependable for projected presentations and the quality is better than anything but uncompressed and that wont play on most computers (bitrate too high).

    If it is a one time projection, you can save your timeline to miniDV and connect a miniDV camera or player to the beamer and the soundsystem.

    Good luck

    Guys, thanks for your advice. I will opt for the DVD option as it will be in a Hotel and they have the DVD and PC.

    I will export to DVD from premiere. I will also have a Director Projector file ready to play before and after the DVD.

    Once again thanks.

    Roberto
