Export to DVD BUT animation interlaced
Hi,
I’m pretty new to the CS3 family, but let me tell you what my problem is. I made a short promotional video which has animations in it and also footage that was recorder with a Sony VX2000 minidv camera. I work in NTSC 4:3.
I made the animation in C4D as an animation, but since it doesn’t have the transparent background I had to import this mov file into AE and make the background transparent and then again export it as a mov file but this was it had the transparent background and I could import it into Premier and put it on my clips.
NOW THE PROBLEM COMES!!
I wanted to export my finished project to DVD. If I check the deinterlaced option at the output (since my DVD will be watch on PCs) the quality of my footage is perfect, but the animation looks interlaced and not nice, If I decheck the deinterlaced option, then my animation is crystal clear and sharp but the footage is interlaced.How could I make look both perfect! please help, I have to gave this project to somebody tomorrow!
THank you

So, you’ve combined Interlaced and Progressive material into one project/export?
I’m not sure of the capabilities of your version of Premiere, but I’d be surprised if it could output a clean file that is made from source files with mixed field orders.
Let us know.

Do you have enough time to render a 60fps file from C4D, that you would interlace in AE, than replace in your Premiere project?

Thank you Vincent for responding, I don’t think I know what I’m doing..:)
How should I do such thing in the future?
The only thing what I could come up with that I went through all of my 2-3sec. footage pieces and I set the field option to deinterlaced and this way I just exported to DVD and now my 3d animation is sharp and the footage is not “stripy”…I know I have a lot to learn and that is why I appriciate your help since I don’t have anybody to ask. This is my hobby but recently ppl are asking me to do videos for school dinners.
Thanks again Vincent and I gladly except any support

If your final medium is going to be an actual NTSC DVD-Video disc, your project can be either 60i (29.97fps) or 24P.
However, you mentioned that these will be played on computers, and you will have no control over what software the end user will use to do this, or what settings they are using. In which case, a deinterlaced project might be more appropriate.I’m nervous about suggesting a path you should take, considering your deadline.
One way would be to create a new 24P premiere project. Exporting a 24p C4D file. Than re-time your DV source as 24p in AE with Twixtor or using Andrew Kramer’s technique, here…
