Progressive & Interlaced
I have been asked to edit a short film shot in hdv, output will be
sd dvd. I have 1 tape shot with a JVC 111E format 720p (1280 x 720)
and the otherone it`s done with a SONY Z1 1080i(1440 x 1080)12 gop.
I thought of waiting for my FCS 2 upgrade and work with that.
As per workflow is concerned shoul I:
CAPTURE AS HDV
WITH COMPRESSOR TRANSCODE TO PRO RES422
OFF COURSE THE FIRST CLIP IN THE TIMELINE WILL DICTATE ALSO THE SIZE OF THE IMAGE SO IF I PUT FIRST THE FOOTAGE FROM THE JVC THE SONY`S WILL BE SCALED DOWN TO 1280 X 720…. ( HOW FAR OFF COURSE AM I?)
ONE LAST QUESTION, ONCE IT`S ALL DONE WILL THE AVERAGE EYE BE ABLE TO SPOT THE DIFFERENCE IN THE FOOTAGE?
I ASKED THEM TO REND A AJA AS READ ON THE COW…. DON`T KNOW YET ABOUT THAT THOUGH.

Turn your caps lock off.
Thank you.
FCP6 adds a new convenience of applying sequence settings to that of the first clip you drag into it. But you can still set your sequence to whatever format you want.
Since you are mixing JVC HDV with Sony HDV, I think you have the right idea. You are much better of capturing both to ProRes.
Whether to do 1080 or 720, that depends on your final output. If you don’t know yet, then just do 1080.
