[DerekKent] “i want a project with at least a resolution of 854×480 (any TRUE 16:9 res above that is fine too) , 30 fps, 48khz, and NOT anamorphic”
[DerekKent] “footage will be shot in anamorphic on a GL2”
If you dont want the project to be anamorphic, why are you shooting anamorphic?
I suggest you read appendix C of the FCP manual to get a better undertanding of anamorphic video.
