    I am wondering the same thing. I use DVCPro 50 for a lot of shooting now. I’m used to DV shoots, and HD shoots, but I’m new to DVCPro 50. What’s the best setting for capture into FCP? What about for graphics editing in AE? I created a timeline in FCP, then used Automatic Duck to rebuild it in AE, and it looked bad. Aspect ratio was off, and the image looked pixelated. Last night I determined this may have to do with some field rendering option in AE on the footage, but I’m still not totally sure.

    So, what’s the best capture setting for capturing DVCPro 50 footage?
    (shooting in 30P, or 24P….)
    thanks,

  • Jeff- I have been intimately involved with this type of work since 1995. Your question is a tough one to answer. I would venture to say that most people currently doing productions for sale to churches throughout the country struggle every day to determine whether or not there is enough money/demand to keep them in business.

    I used to work with a company that made video products sold to churches throughout the united states. Currently, I own my own production company, largely specializing in productions for local churches.

    (for that matter, let me know what your experience and abilities are, and maybe I can help find some work for you somewhere)

    another way to “break into this” would be to seek out a church, and approach them with the idea of working for them wearing many hats. As I’ve seen it, any church that decides to begin using video will soon be overcome with the effectiveness of it, and only need it more. Therefore, you may start working at a church as an assistant to someone else, or youth pastor, and soon end up becoming the video specialist for that church.

    Lots of christian organizations do productions for churches. check some of them out. Highway Video, Igniter Media, Willow Creek, Saddleback, Fellowship Church (in dallas), and more! Also, more churches these days are broadcasting their services on local or national channels. that’s another venue for your creative efforts.

    I’ll stop for now- please write me or post here for more info…

    just a guess, but have you tried to use the de-interlace filter on both the out-going and in-coming clips?
