Thank you sir!

This works, ideally we’ll get our C.C. encoder to block the captions next time. But this works too!

My record deck is a Sony UVW-1800. Any ideas how to strip the CC going to that deck from another Beta Cam deck?

[Alan Callaghan]

The format is Beta Cam.

We are able to put captioning on to a tape, and we tried to block out the captioning by basically adding captioning with nothing on the line.

You say there is a way to do it deck to deck? That would save so much time instead of digitizing then laying off. We have two record Beta Cam decks, and you think that would work?

thanks for the help.

Thanks guys! This really helps.

Awesome! Thanks Sir.

That video you posted looked great, and that lighting set up is what I am trying to go for. Like a 1:1 kinda commercial look, pretty simple.

I was able to track down some China Lanterns at Pier One Imports where they are always in stock, some stores don’t have them year round.

I also grabbed some wax paper from a store to diffuse light.

I have access to a work lamp (like the ones at Home Depot) and I have a white foam board to bounce light off of. I may not need it however.

Thanks for the tips, I’ll surely use them! If anything else comes to mind please post it.

take care

Got it! Thanks guys.

It doesn’t take very long when you capture one frame. Thanks for the advice.

yes, I did a shift N freeze frame in the original SD footage. Then when I did the Online it was zoomed in and cropped. Still however doing the correct speed on the scaling effect, just everything is cropped and zoomed in.

and ideas?

thanks guys,

Well let me throw this at you too.

When I noticed this, I opened the motion tab and pulled the scale back, and the footage was cropped, it didn’t seem to capture the whole frame.

What do you think? Maybe kick the cropped still freeze frame stuff offline, then take the motion effect out, recapture the stills, then open the motion tab and add the scale effect?

Does that sound right?

Thanks for the advice!
