    I either just letterbox the whole show or call it art.
    I dont mind mixing 4X3 stuff with 16X9 stuff. Never have.

  • edl manager will make a sequence from your edl and you can import the tga files with an inverted alpha. Otta work fine.

    short answer is yes, ust use After Effets.
    I have found very little time saving value with plugins by the tme ya weigh in rendering and limitations. I’m just us to keeping AE open. Not much has changed here since ’95.

    This wot affect your alpha but will highly increase your import times.

    create some new user settings and give it a whirl under those settings. That all I have for the hum, man. (assuming this has never happened before)
    If tat doesnt work and you have to get it on tape, backtime yur tc on your deck and sequence. You will be ale to crash within frames of your 1 hour start. You will at least have something to ship then you can troubleshoot further.

    you have to invert the alpha in your imnport settings for images and image sequences. You’ll maintain alpha with QTs.

    you can draw out he frame in photoshop usin an oversized canvas then animate tha with somemotion blut in AE. Depending on how many different looks ya want, you may only have to render a couple of these. You can render em with alphas and do the rest of the work in Avid.
    I bet wit a search you can find a perferated filmstrip frame with an alpha online. You can at least grab a jpg of google images then cut out what is needed.
    It may just be easier to create from scratch. Just rounded edged rectangles, really.

    I just charge my regualr hourly rate (which is now down to 100 an hour). I see no need to mark it up or down. Still me, my time and my gear. If I had my rathers, I’d train more than meet deadlines.
