Thanks so much for the info Guy.
Just double-checked the sequence specs…the frame rate is 29.97, 1440 x 1020, HD 1440 x 1020 PAR. I’m doing a title sequence that can stand on its own, but I have to do lower thirds that are, of course, integrated with the footage.
Part of the difficulty is this job came through a friend who is dealing with the client, and the client doesn’t know anything about this stuff – they just need a couple DVDs to take around for presentations. I’d love to just deinterlace everything (good info BTW, thanks), but probably safest to keep it all interlaced in case it’s used on older TVs?
Cheers,
