  • Premiere CC 16:9 Timeline to 4:3 Timeline Problems

    Posted by Mike Bugera on February 21, 2014 at 2:32 am

    On a 17″ MacBook Pro with Mavericks and Premiere CC, we’ve taken 1280×1080 speaker in front of green screen footage and edited on a timeline of the same dimensions. After keying we’ve then nested that timeline in a 720×480 timeline and fit the speaker in a template (speaker in upper corner, slides filling the rest).

    When trying to compress to a 640×480 Quicktime mp4, all else looks good, but the speaker is squished. It’s as if Premiere didn’t treat the 720×480 timeline as a flattened timeline, but rather needed to go to the 1280×1080 timeline and turn it into 4:3 first, then recomposite the newly squished speaker into the 720×480 timeline, then make a Quicktime.

    Is there any way to tell Premiere to not treat the 1280×1080 timeline this way and just turn the 720×480 timeline into a Quicktime? Or is there a better way to do this?

    I recommend asking questions like this on the Premiere Pro forum, not this low-traffic forum about the Creative Cloud system.
