Finalising my films
Hi, I’m trying to finalise my film but have problems doing so. I have got good tips from Dave, but still have some worries, so if anyone could help I would be very, very happy and greateful! 🙂
For rendering I go to Add to Render Que. In the Render Settings dialogue box i leave it as it is. (the size is 1440 x 1080).
In the Output Module settings dialogue box:
Based on Lossless
Video for Windows är pre-chosen, so I change this to Quick Time.
Channels RGB
Color: Premultiplied
The Stretch dialogue box is greyed out, and the width and height is 1440 x 1080. The little box here saying Lock Aspect Ratio to 4:3 is ticked already. Why? Sould untick it?
There is also the dropdown menu where I can chose to stretch the 1440 x 1080 video to Custom or HDV 1080 25 or DVCPRO HD 720 23,976… I don’t want to stretch the format, shall I leave this unchecked?
Audio 48 kHz.
I tried to export like this to see if it worked, and turned out to be 16:9, but it crashed…
I am still on my PC with HD video.

Hi, Dave, Yes I understand that it is not easy to give a simple answer. I’m very greateful that you still try to help me! I have tried to answer the questions below, but maybe I have misunderstood something and not given a good answer…
Because we don’t know how your rendered AE project will be used NEXT.
– I want to do the this with the file:
* make a playable DVD using Encore
* make a file for others to include in festivals and so on
* make a file for export to Beta SP tape for festival useWe don’t know what kind of editing application will use your animations.
– I only use After Effects for animating (or am I misunderstanding your question?)We don’t know if an editing application will even be part of your workflow.
– I capture in Pinnacle Studio (because i have to since my avchd format is not accepted by SC3)) and then edit in Premiere and Afre Effects CS3, and then I use Adobe Encore CS3, if/when I put the file on DVD.We don’t know what kind of a computer you have.
– A PC, HP Pavillion laptop dv 9686We don’t know your operating system
– Windows Vista Home Premium (32 I think?)your processors and cores
– Intel (R) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU T7500 @ 2,20 GHzyour storage capacity
– two internal hard drives 142 GB + 149 GBthe amount of memory on your machine
– RAM memory, 4 GBthe codec(s) of the footage you’re using,
avchd hd footage, when it leavs Studio and comes to Premiere or AE it is Windows media file (HDV 1080/50i 1440×1080 or HDV 1080/50i 1920×1080).the codec to which you’re currently rendering,
– Quictime, Animationthe version of AE you run
