If you’re exporting through Compressor, there is a de-interlace filter in the filters tab in the inspector. Just select odd or even in the algorithm drop down and it will remove one of the fields. You could also try the slower, but better, de-interlace option in frames control as well. That doesn’t remove fields but interpolates them.

Have you tried removing a field? You have resolution to spare, at least for the dvd

June 26, 2012 at 1:28 pm in reply to: Is it possible to switch the shadows on an image with the highlights?Idea: duplicate the layers after keying. Desaturate the upper layer, invert it and play around with bending modes, opacity and maybe some blur.
There are probably other ways to do it, though -

June 25, 2012 at 3:14 pm in reply to: Trying to marry 16×9 and 4×3 movies in timeline without annoying distortionJust select one of the modified clips in the timeline and copy. The select all the 4:3 clips in your timeline, right click one of them and select ‘paste atributes’ and then ‘basic motion’. That will paste your scale and distort (or was distort a second category? I don’t remember right now) settings to all the 4:3 clips and that way they should end up with the correct settings.

If I got it right, your captured file is badly transcoded. You’ll need to capture it again with an NTSC camera/vtr. Once captured in ntsc, you can convert it with compressor.

Some agreement with Apple perhaps? *IIRC* that card was developed with Apple or something like that. They may have an exclusivity agreement regarding NLEs

Get your Pal prores master into compressor (or maybe Adobe Media Encoder if you have it) and convert it using one of the ntsc dvd templates. Make a test with a small part of your short film (ideally, one with the most motion) and see how it ends. You’ll want to use the best options in the frame controls. YMMV, but you should be able to get satisfactory results.

I guess Macs don’t support the blu rays drm nor intend to do so. You’ll probably be able to play it by installing Windows in Bootcamp

June 7, 2012 at 7:21 pm in reply to: Video cards for 2009 Mac Pro and After Effects CS6 / GT 120, GTX 285, or ATI Radeon HD 5870I’m in the same boat. Officially supported, it looks like it’s the Quadro 4000. Now, there are ways to make some gaming cards as the GTX 570, but it’s not officially supported so I’m not sure how much of a reliable out of the box purchase it would be. The GTX 570 has more cuda core than the Quadro 4000, maybe that means it’s actually faster and cheaper for CS6 work?
OTOH, if you believe rumours are to be taken into account, recent rumours claim Apple might launch a new line of Mac Pros at whatever the event they have soon. It might include official support for more GPUs. Or it might not. Or there might be no announcement of new Mac Pros.

That’s a good workflow. Would it still re-render the AE comp at the time of the final render or does it use the proxy, thus avoiding rendering it twice?
