The Vector Scope results look good, but I wouldn’t recommend running the green with that much intensity. You could wind up with making the hair look un-natural. However, if you are happy with the final matte, I then you are doing it right.

If you are checking the footage in the Quicktime Player be aware that the Quicktime X player automatically de-interlaces all of the footage. Use either the Quicktime 7 player or bring the exported footage back into FCP and check it. I would recommend playing it back on a television connected to Final Cut Pro to see if is actually interlaced.

Resize all your images to the 1280×720. This would be the square pixel size equivalent to the format you are using. Using smaller images sizes, solves two problems. There will be no weird resizing artifacts and Final Cut Pro will run faster with smaller sized images. Using TIFF is probably better, as there are less compression artifacts.

Yes, you are correct. In that case, I believe the best way to handle the EX1 files should be converted directly to ProRes instead of MP4. I would recommend using Compressor 4 to do this.

I recommend DVDxDV over everything else, because I wrote it.

Any particular reason you went from the EX1 to MP4 to Final Cut X when Final Cut X will support the EX1 files natively? That’s a lot of loss and through re-compression.

I would avoid using 60p as a format for eventual transfer to DVD. It’s going to be converted to 29.97 during the encoding process. Unless you are doing some trick slow motion, you want to stick with the lowest frame rate possible. The HVX200 has a widescreen standard definition sensor. It is not a true HD camera. Therefore, I’d would recommend keeping it at 720p to avoid resizing artifacts in the video.

Motion is pretty easy to do masking with. Take a look at the bottom of this article I wrote which show you how to do masking in motion.

I’m not sure why it’s doing that. I’m able to set the bit rate at 30 megabits.

Click on the gear tab next to the Average Bit Rate setting. This should you to change the setting.
