  Line up a raw still with video frame grab.

  Posted by Phil Side on April 11, 2012 at 10:27 am

  I have a still taken with a canon 60d. I also have movie footage, taken from exactly the same position. I want to match up the still pixel-for-pixel with the footage. The difficulty is that the still is 5184×3456 = 3:2 and the movie footage is 1920×1080 = 16:9

  What I want to do, is take the still into Photoshop and crop/resize it so that it is 1920×1080, and it has a pixel-for-pixel match with the movie footage.

  Looking at a screengrab from the footage, and comparing it to the still, it’s clear that the still is cropped, but I haven’t been able to work out exactly what sequence of actions will match the still to the screengrab.

  A further complication is that 60d actually records at 1920×1088, not 1920×1080, although After Effects seems to ignore this.

  Any help would be much appreciated.
