The final output at this stage will be digi beta – so post-edit everything will need an anamorphic squeeze down to SD. But I’ll output an image sequence at 720 x 1280 for going out to film at a later date. I’m thinking I could output the initial footage from AFX(as it is all composited material)as SD at this stage with duplicate clips at 720p. Cut with the SD for the digi beta master and then replace the SD clips with the 720p clips when I need to go out to film. Works in theory… any previous experience here greatly appreciated.
So if it is so that Premiere will be happier and run more smoothly with AVIs the codec I want is dvAVI ? Excuse my ignorance here – I dont have extensive experience with AVI, I use .mov almost exclusively. Happy to make the change for the right reasons and with the right advice.
Cheers
