    Please help,

    how do you set fcp 5.1.1 to edit hd video in 2.35 aspect ratio. someone showed me this once but I forgot to do it. I am trying to edit a short film in the cinemascope ratio. the video was shot in hd 16×9 with the 2.35 marker on the monitor turned on. thanks

    If it was shot on an HD camera, then the only way you make it 2.35 is with a letterbox.

    Open the manual to the index.
    Open the online help system.
    Look for “letterbox.”
    Really, it’s that easy.

    This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”
