Creating graphics for a 2K film shot with the RED.
Dear Cows,
The film project we are working on was shoot with the RED camera 2k size.The challenge is that we need to create the graphics, considering is a low budget film and we have modest equipment, Macpros.
We will be using photoshop, aftereffects, and motion.
The question is what will be the right method?
Create the graphics on a 1080P size? (lower file size)
What will be the right aspect-ratio?Best,

It would depend on what format you shot the red with. The red 2k options are below. Figure out which you shot with and create a comp that size.
The red one uses square pixels
2K 16:9 (2048×1152), 2K 2:1 (2048×1024) 1 – 120 frame/s (variable)

Thanks Andrew!
We are currently making a fantasy short film- planning to shoot on RED ONE… so, for the graphics, if we make 16:9 (2048×1152), 29.97 fps, will that be fine? Or should it be 24fps? -
Your graphics should be the the same framerate as your footage – if you shot 24p great, 24p should be the framerate of your graphics. Likewise… 29.97p, make your motion graphics that rate too.
