    When I have my a movie that I want to put back to TV, do I just add an interlacer filter and export it as a Quicktime h.264 or some other compressor or is there more to it than that?

    Thanks

    1. RENDER (not export) from After Effects to an Animation Codec Quicktime set to 100% quality, millions of colors. These options can be found in the render queue (once a file is added) by clicking the word “Lossless” in your output module.

    2a. Getting your file “to your TV” could mean via DVD or some other method. For DVDs, import the resulting file from step 1 into a DVD authoring application such as DVD Studio Pro (mac) or Adobe Encore (PC) and create a DVD. The program will convert your high resolution Animation codec file into the appropriate format.

    2b. If you want to get the file to your tv via some other method besides DVD, you need to tell us what you are trying to do. There are a million ways to go from here.
