  • Widescreen D1 (non-square) footage & square pixel images in same comp…best way?

    Posted by Jason Brown on October 24, 2006 at 1:26 pm

    Hello fellow cow-er’s,

    Is it better to scale up the horizontal aspect of my footage by 133% to fit into a 864 x 486 square pixel comp? Or use a 1.2 PAR 720 x 486 comp and put my square pixel images, which I then need to scale down 77% horizontally?

    One issue I found is that I can’t do any kind of rotation…unless I keyframe the relative scale!

    I ask, because I want to retain the best quality…but have the most versatility to do moves and things on the pics.

    Also, is is better to take my 864 x 486 comp and scale it manually to the dimensions for rendering? Or do that in the output module? Does it make a difference?

    -Jason
