Hi, I have similar question too. I am an independent film maker and I’ve been editing my short film with tons of digital still pictures in After Effects CS3.
My question is when I look at the composition panel I found two different options:
DVCPRO HD 1080 29.28 and HDTV 1080 24
First of all I don’t really know the exact differences and I wonder why there are no 23.97 frame rate option.
Because My final goal is to out put the picture based footage into Final Cut Pro in the highest possible quality as Full HD 1080 Progressive 23.98 frames
so that I can edit the video with sound for projecting in HDTV (Broadcast)
But I found so many different out put options in output module inside the Render Queue too.
I tested several times with different options but It just so hard to tell which composition, format and codec would be the best for my project.
Actually I already did a lot of editing and in the end I realized I had been editing all wrong way. That’s I realized when I watched the final video in HDTV…
So It would be grateful if somebody could give me any idea.
Regards,
