  Prepping SD footage for an HD project

  Posted by Mike Tomei on October 14, 2010 at 12:41 pm

  Hello everyone,

  I have some SD footage that I need to place in a HD project. I was hoping to give you the details and see how you would prep the footage.

  The source of this SD footage is a PAL DVD, and it’s interlaced. The project time line I’m hoping to place this footage in is DVCPRO HD 720p60 in Premiere Pro CS5 on a PC. Pillar boxing the SD footage is just fine. My eventual export format will be a Quicktime file using the DVCPRO HD 720p60 codec.

  I’ve heard Telestream Episode handles PAL conversions very well, but I don’t have access to that program. My only options are Adobe Media Encoder, Handbrake and MPEG Streamclip.

  Given these resources, how would you prep this footage for this project?

  Thanks for the help!
