Here is a video I have made showing me doing exactly what I want to have happen manually: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdvb8BPdL0s&feature=youtu.be

It’s a short process yes, but it would be a real help to automate as we have a lot of videos we go through that this needs to apply too. This was the code I found below that I was trying to work with to accomplish this:

var precomp = app.project.activeItem.layers.precompose([1], “720_Render”, [true]); precomp.width = 720; precomp.height = 404;

The issue with the code above is all it does is precomps the layer inside the composition, and it also doesnt crop to the center of the composition.

Any help here would be much appreciated 🙂

Thanks both for your input, seems like precomping my main comp into the 720×404 res comp and scaling down the composition seems to work great and doesn’t produce that same jagged look I was getting.

How hard would it be to automate this process? I was hoping I could fix this with render settings but with this solution it will take a bit more steps for the amount of videos I need to set this up on.

Thanks again!
