Best Video File Setting for Moving Stills
I’m creating a video file of stills sliding in and out of frame against a gray/white backdrop. In exporting and transcoding to achieve a file that will be sent out for viewing. What are my best options for filetype and codec to maintain the quality in the movement, i.e. avoid frame jitters?

Dave is correct. Start with your delivery requirements and work backward from there.

firstly thanks for the dialogue. The final product will be an mpeg4 to be used in a keynote presentation. I’m working in 24p 1920×1080. In the past I’ve just exported a ProResHQ and then converted to an H264 mpeg4 (with de-interlace clicked on). I can’t help but think when it’s a graphics only video that there would be a different protocol of choice.

It is extremely unlikely that a presentation projector is running at 24p. It’s much more likely it’s running at 60 Hz. If you want smoother motion, ditch the “cinematic” frame rate and work at 29.97/30 or 59.94/60 frames per second. Just check in with the technical team about their preferences.
