Hi Storm,
Couldn’t tell you. I’ve never used interlaced material. Either film that was shot and transferred 30fps (29.97) so every frame is true, or Shot 24fps and in the Avid (or you could use AE) the pull down is removed so it’s a 24fps file.
But when it’s graphics only (mostly what we use AE for), I always render progressive.

This has also been discussed a ton in the past, so do a search of the archives for a lot more inout on it, Me personally I think an interlaced render looks like old 80’s video switcher effects where the motion is too hyper real. The same how video motion looks compared to film motion.

You can actually get pretty far by Screening a ramp/colorama combo in greyscale over your BG layer. Then set the points right for the soft grad at the top (to look like it’s reflecting a bounce card from the ceiling) then a hard cutoff near the middle (which gives the illusion that the plastic shell is hard (sharp specularity). Quick and dirty, but easy.

I have a behind the scenes video on the Zoom launch and they said they made it with Particular in AE probably using the the grid/layer function.

[Mylenium] “Because of all that, the old method of calibrting everything by eye is probaly just as good and half as expensive.”
Or picking up an old Sony broadcast monitor.

Yeah, you would need an example. Most food shoots are shot by speacialist director’s that usually have their own motion control rig. They preprogram the move and focus pull so that it can get really close and precise to the food and repeated over and over. They also often use a frasier lens (or borscope) so they don’t have to get the camera so close, just the lens itself.
If there are tomatoes flying INTO ketchup bottles, then it’s probably 3D.

Adam,

Watch the video link in the first post. Then read the little Q&A after that I did with him. It explains a little how they did it. It shows great examples of footage shot that was used in AE without being tracked.
