April 19, 2012 at 2:34 am in reply to: Export Format with maximum quality?

thanks this is really good info. To get back to the size of the original, when I say it’s 10mb, I mean that’s the .MOV file directly from the camera, so shouldn’t that be the max size it will ever be?

Or am I misunderstanding that the file is bigger in fact but the .mov format holds it in a smaller/compressed container?
thankyou

you’re right, I’m so used to using HSL effect instead, thanks again for your help

hi, thanks for your reply, I believe adjusting seperate colors is the way, when I add a HSL / Hue effect, there just seems to be one hue control for the whole image, not seperate colors (like Photoshop), is there a way to do this? (or rather I’m sure there is, could you enlighten me, thankyou)

hi, thanks Shane, I’ve set it to the 23 frame rate, you’ve saved me a lot of hassle – I was getting a ‘frame rate mismatch’ message now and again! Would you know the other settings to use please? I’ve made a preset with 1920×1080 and ‘square pixels’.

thankyou I will try this also, I should post my other workaround too – I duplicate the layer, blur the original, then set the Trackmatte to the duplicated layer (which I make invisible).

this is very interesting, I haven’t heard of using green lighting on the greenscreen – which must make it even more green! – and I guess the magenta helps ‘clash’ with the green creating a stronger outline? I will definitely be trying this myself thankyou.

Thankyou for your answers, nothing like waiting for a while to get more informed!

so this is what I’m starting with –

Smith Victor KT900 3-Light 1250-Watt Kit

I hope this is a good start, they’ve got a good rep and it’s not totally dirt-cheap, so I expect to add to this, perhaps there are some suggestions?
