Pixal Aspect Ratio Correction question
Newbie question,
I’m just trying to correctly output a circle I created from photoshop CS3, to Apple Motion3, & have the circle remain a circle in Motion, not an egg shape, even after I output it from motion. I’ve been watching a bunch of Richards tutorials about this,but obviously I’m missing something. I’ve creatived a new document in CS3 with dimentions of 1280×720 & pixal aspect ratio set to D1/DV NTSC Widescreen 1.2, I then create a circle, every thing looks fine in CS3 with the pixal aspect ratio correction on ( & here is where my problem must be). I save this as a PNG file to the desktop & import it into my new 1280x 720 canvas in Motion3, but of course I don’t have a circle, I have a egg shape. What
other settings do I need to adjust on output from CS3 ??? I feel like this has been talked about alot, but I’m
just missing I piece of the puzzel.thanks in advance

You didn’t watch tute close enough.
HD at that size is square pxels.
You are applying widescreen SD PAR to an HD canvas.
