Final Cut Pro 16:9 to 4:3 Dilemma
So here is what I want.
I shot 720p30 footage. I want to edit then make a DVD with 4:3 aspect ratio.
I dont want a complete “crop”, I just want to take the 16:9 image and superimpose it on a 4:3 project, so in the end there would be black bars on top and bottom and “most” of the image would fit in the 4:3 frame.
Can someone give me a workflow for this? I already imported the aft mentioned footage but I am having some difficulty with deciding where the actual “crop” will take place and what sequence settings I should use (anamorphic??)
Compressor? DVD Studio Pro?
Help would be appreciated…
Edit: Figured it out.
