  • how to make good titles for tv in ppro?

    I have been watching different TV commercials and looking at different titles. They all seem better than mine, especially when the font is small. How do you get a sharp looking font when small? I have used AE to create titles and they look great until I bring them into ppro even with dynamic link the words still look like crap.
    I’m using CS2 ppro.

    Use block letters, avoid “serif” fonts with the tails and frilly things. Keep colors legal, between 16-235 values, for instance “white” would be 235-235-235. It will look white on TV though it is a light gray. Pure white will cause issues, as will pure colors (255-0-0). The “neon” color looks good on computer, will go nuts on TV screen, mix colors together so they are not too oversaturated. NTSC just doesn’t handle it well.
