  • HD to SD conversion in Motion

    Posted by Nicole Grether on August 18, 2010 at 8:25 pm

    I recently purchased a HD 1920 X 1080 Motion template. My client is requesting the final product be 16:9 SD. What’s the easiest way to convert the template?

    Many thanks in advance.

    Kind regards,

    –Nicole

    Output it in HD and then do the downconversion of the final piece to SD using Compressor. Quality should be very high.

    Or, in FCP, just drop the HD template in an SD sequence. It will scale/letterbox automatically.
