Best setup for edit for web
Hello All.
We normally edit for broadcast, now we have a project that will be distributed by web and interactive kiosks. Does anyone can advice what will be a good work flow. For me seams that all will be on a progressive base (shoot, edit, compress and deliver always using progressive setup) instead of go interlace and the convert to progressive, considering that this will never be broadcast, but we are not sure and need some help.
Sorry if this is a very dumb question, but its a new experience for us and don’t want to mess it out.
Any direction is very welcome.

Juan,
Because the best way to evaluate color and images is on an NTSC monitor, working as though for broadcast is certainly advantageous. There are several ways to deinterlace later many of which work superbly. Compressor is one, Episode another. We do a ton of work for the Internet and all of it starts interlaced. We do work in 30f which is kind of a fake progressive, but we know what it will look like because we are editing and color correcting on a proper monitor.
Have a wonderful day.

Thanks Chris for your fast respond.
Any suggestion on settings for compressor to get a good final output. Seams that they will need FLV (Flash) files for interactive kiosks.

Well, I don’t think you can do FLVs in Compressor. But, you can deinterlace your shows in FCP or, with JES Deinterlacer, which is fantastic. Then you can go in Flash and make your FLVs.
Have a wonderful day.

If you can go progressive, go progressive. No fields to worry about, it compresses cleaner, and deinterlacing always toss picture info away (the question is just how much). If you already have a bunch of money invested in an interlaced workflow then you’ll have to do your own cost/benefit analysis, but if you are starting from square one progressive is better option, IMO.

Actually you can, using the Quicktime Export Components, and then select Flash Video FLV as an option.
I don’t remember if I install a plugin for quicktime but I can export FLV from compressor,Andrew, we will shoot on P2 cameras that i know can shoot progressive 720p and then edit on FCP all progressive, what do you think ?
