clip..sequence..output

[Walter Biscardi]

[Ty Ford] “If some of my clips are at a higher res than my timeline (sequence) settings, do they retain that higher res so that when I do the final output “

The clips will retain whatever your timeline presets are.

And do you really have to link that video to your signature? You can just provide a link so it doesn’t take so long to load all your questions.

Hi Ty,
Apart of the quality of the stuff you put in your sequence, in short this will depends a lot of the codec you use on exporting and the kind of rendering.
Think of a codec like a container. if you are adding elements to your original material, you need room to accommodate them.
About Rendering, FC do not offer many options, but you must be aware of few things that can improve your rendering.
I would recommend you to work in a sequence with whatever codec makes your editing easy.
Then when you are ready to export, in your Sequence Setting set ProRess or 10b Uncompress.
Set “Render all YUV Material in High Precission YUV”. This will make the rendering in 32b Floating Point. Set as well “Render Motion effets: BEST”. this should help with any Animation, resizing, cropping etc.
All this should help to get a good 10b master. from there you can go to a web video, DVD, tape, etc.

>? I don’t understand.

>? Container, OK. Room to accommodate added elements? What room where?

About Rendering, FC do not offer many options, but you must be aware of few things that can improve your rendering.

>Interesting. It seems the list of export options is waaay to long.

I would recommend you to work in a sequence with whatever codec makes your editing easy.

> and that would be to have as many of the clips be of the same file type as the sequence parameters, right?

Then when you are ready to export, in your Sequence Setting set ProRess or 10b Uncompress.

> I was under the impression that once you set the parameters of a sequence, it could not be changed.

Set “Render all YUV Material in High Precission YUV”. This will make the rendering in 32b Floating Point. Set as well “Render Motion effets: BEST”. this should help with any Animation, resizing, cropping etc.

> In what menu is “Render all YUV Material in High Precission YUV”

All this should help to get a good 10b master. from there you can go to a web video, DVD, tape, etc.

>What’s a 10b master?
