Oh thats a bummer. Any idea what to search for on how to do the UV thing? Its just the sides or extruded parts of text, so not too complex. I’m clueless with UV.

Awesome, thanks Walter. That saves render time now!

OK thanks for the explanation. Just so I’m clear, I can literally render PNG frames… then pull them into AE as a sequence, drop that sequence into a comp… add audio and render to whichever format… and it will interpret the PNG frames without compression? Thus making it a good alternative for rendering out a final deliverable file to broadcast.

Oh Ok, thanks. Any reason TIFF files are almost 3 times larger for the same frame? That to me would say the TIFF is more a “raw” file for use in the final movie to export.

Dave, ever work with big household name clients that have art directors and producers select stock footage you have to use? None of this is not being smart. This was a messy project before I got involved. I have about 30 different required clips, all varying frame rates and resolutions and on a tight time crunch. I’m using many of them as artistic elements and textures. No time to convert them all as some are only up on screen for a second. Just not worth it for what, a few dropped frames? And you don’t just convert each video without expensive services or software I don’t have. Any converting I do will have to be on adobe.
Either way, if I check the preserve frame rate in the comps holding the footage, is that a work around? Seems it would still have to convert somehow if the main comp is 29.97.
The CC and trafficking pub said I can supply them with a 1080p, 29.97 ProRes, which was my original question.

This is a motion graphics piece. I just looked and I literally have texture footage, live action footage and literally have 23.97, 25, 29.97 and 30 fps videos all being placed into a 29.97 main comp. Things look ok when I export to .MOV 1080p 29.97. What I’m worried about is the file I need to convert for broadcast. So its really that main aforementioned movie that needs converting.

So if you have a project with multiple stock clips at different framerates, what would you do? Real world = not everything is shot with the same camera / framerate.
Also, what can I do if I want to still have 1080 resolution? I only did a test file that I told you about (media encoder 1080i), I have some time so willing to fix things to make it right.
-
Oh I should have also mentioned I even have a 25fps video in there as well. I thought AE takes care of framerates for you and adjusts accordingly?
-
Thanks Dave. I don’t really see another way around things considering the stock footage was what it was (different frame rates); I had to mix it. Also the live action footage is used in artistic ways, its not really full screen and “in your face.” It seems bringing an exported 1080p MOV into media encoder and making a 1080i MOV looks OK. Anything wrong with that? Also, I’d prefer 1080 resolution rather than 720. Do I have other options?
-
Yes, there is live action. Its all stock footage, some at 23.98fps and some at 29.97fps.
The question is, what will look better, keeping the 29.97 framerate and exporting that to 1080i with the same framerate… or throwing my main comp into another comp, changing that framerate of that “container” comp to 23.98 and exporting to 1080p?
