    No, I def want to make my 1080p to 1080i, I figured that was “downgrading” but maybe I’m wrong.

    Thanks. So I can literally just downsample/downgrade to 1080i no issues? Will it still look good? (Hope so!)

    Hey All,

    So I got the specs. Couple Q’s:

    Here is what they except:

    Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) 1920×1080 23.98p 48 kHz
    Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) 1920×1080
    60i 48 kHz
    Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) 1280×720
    60p 48 kHz
    ProRes 422 (LT) can be used if bandwidth is limited

    FPS:
    29.97 (1080i) 23.98 (1080p) 59.94 (720p)

    So is it safe to just use the HDTV 1920×1080 29.97 FPS preset in AE? Could I then export it to 1080i (29.97) or 1080p (23.989)? Wondering which would be better to export to.

    Also, is 8 bit color OK?

    Thanks all. I will be getting the specs when we start production, but I’m asking ahead of time to see if there are any quirks with standards to familiarize myself beforehand. I thought I read once that blacks need to be a certain shade and certain things can cause seizures, etc.

    What I meant to ask was, if you own the plugin already and want to use a render farm… do you need multiple licenses if it needs to live on the other machines in the network?

    Thanks all for the help. This all looks promising. It says you need to have a copy of all plugins and I’m assuming C4D for each machine? What happens if I only have one license for each plugin like trapcode or optical flares?

    In doing a little more research in C4d, I found that the hierarchy doesn’t work when you put everything in a fracture object. Is it known that layer hierarchy and visibility gets wonky once you place things into mograph objects?

    Thanks! I’ll give it a try…

    Thanks but I don’t think that would let me track one specific point and its position data?

    So with experimenting, I got each frame down to 13 seconds instead of a minute. I made all of the shadow soft instead of Area, which is what it was set to. What a difference! Any other hidden secrets that minimize final look but makes a big difference in rendering?
