Normal 4:3 to Anamorphic
Hi all.
I have to make a cinema spot out of BetaSP material and want to master it on digibeta with an anamorphic pixel aspect ratio. Whats the best way to convert the material in after effects with minimum quality loss? So far, I have dropped the footage into a DV widescreen comp, and scaled it that it fits in , then motion blur and noise remover to hide the pixels. Its not tooooo bad, but can anyone suggest a better way?
thanks in advance

What exactly do you mean by anamorphic? Do you mean the same aspect ratio as anamorphic film lenses (2.35:1) or the animorphic process of squeezing a 16:9 image into a 4:3 image?
As far as movie screens, most are at 1.85:1 unless it’s a movie shot wider at 2.35:1 which is mostly from S35 these days and not from anamorphic leneses.

Hmmm…
What I mean is basically making 4:3 to 16:9 (DVPAL 1:1.066 into DVPAL 1:1.42) thus making an anamorphic 4:3 picture.
does that make sense? sorry not to be so clear, first time I’ve had to attempt this. As well, the ads in the cinema are never the same size as the feature. Not here (Germany) anyway…
hope this helps, and hope you can help me too.
thanks for the reply
