Thanks for advice. I don’t think I could afford blue screen. I will shoot with Sony XL1. Is that good enough?
>>Also, I’d shoot in day and make it look like night. It’ll just give you the good contrast that was present in sin city.<< Can you explain this more detailed. How to do that and why exactly? Thanks

I put the mov in the Final Cut now. There is an export function and compressor opens. How to make one mpeg2 file with it with the extension .mpg?

No, I don’t have nothing. My first project on mac and I know on windows there was built in mpeg2 enc in AE. Now I’m stuck. I don’t even know that much about formats for TV and I have to complete it today. I have to deliver them by puting the file on the server for download, so uncompressed is not a very good idea. Can you suggest something?

I “fixed” the problem. Apparently there was a layer too much in the composition. I put adjustment layer on top of everything and applied guassian blur effect. When I deleted it it worked ok. BTW, do you know how could I export it to mpeg2? I need to deliver it to TV station and I have this https://homepage.mac.com/major4/download.html codec. It makes two files when I choose mpeg2 format and the size is not correct – it adds space on the left and right end of the movie.

I got it here https://homepage.mac.com/major4/download.html for free. Now, how should I set the audio and video settings to get good quality for tv broadcast? I mean both in AE and the encoding software.

Thanks for the help guys, I got into this ad hoc project thinking it’ll be a cakewalk making 3 min video. But it’s my first project for TV, first time on Mac and with obvious lack of knowledge, experience and hardware. I hope client will be happy on wednesday morning 🙂

Oh no, I’m in trouble now. I have to deliver it by tuesday evening. Not a chance to get additional hardware by then. I’ll have to finish the project, put it on DVD and view it on DVD player. Then make some additional color corrections.

Hm, I think I might be using illegal colors. I use all colors that AE offers but I don’t know which are ilegal. I have Mac G5, Dell 24″ monitor, connected with firewire on camera (cheap Canon) and on to TV (also cheap Philips, not professional). I’m using full resolution in AE.

Is this what you need? I found this box and it seems great for a reasonable price.
