I’ve just always used Visual Hub because it was simple and had no problems in the past. I’ve never really used Compressor. Guess I should eh?

[Michael Brodner]

Thanks guys I’ll give it a shot

[Michael Brodner]

Here’s a link to a sample clip. Note that this is not something that will be in the actual video but rather, the way I will be filming the band when the day comes. Also, this is the actual location of our shoot…

[Michael Brodner]

Yeah I’ve seen the meteor tutorials. Maybe I’ll upload a sample clip of how the whole shoot will look to show you guys an idea of what I mean.

I’ll give it a shot, forgot about the motion tiling! Thanks

ACtion Essentials is incredible. I haven’t used much of it yet but I plan to. I bought it specifically for this shoot.

Ah nevermind. Just read that there are 2 different 24P modes on that camera and that one would require a pulldown while the other would not. I shot my stuff with the mode that would require a pulldown

[Michael Brodner]

I was under the impression that the HV40 shoots 24P natively, therefore no pulldown is needed.

[Michael Brodner]

what’s 1K tone?

[Michael Brodner]

Ill give this a shot. Thanks a bunch.

Well no, not exactly. It’s an option. But they also said I could drop the file onto a flash card or even send it through Sendspace.com, which is what I initially did. The only problem with Sendspace.com is that it only allows you 300mb to send. If I had to, I could drop the file off at the station. Here’s the exact email I got from him. All he said was DVCPRO-NTSC. Said that a quicktime would be fine

Heres what he wrote:

“A few things to consider:

1) We don’t work in HD at all. Master Control can’t accept HD.
2) It’s going to be converted to SD at some point, and in some place.
Right now, it looks like you’re the only person with that cabability.
3) NTSC video looks worse on a computer than it will on a TV.
Especially text. Most especially any text that moves right to left
(i.e., the opposite direction that the upper/lower interlace scan will
read it)
4) Even at its best, SD will look worse than HD.

My suggestion is to send the DVCPro-NTSC file, and let me tell you if
it’s going to be acceptable on air. If it isn’t we’ll proceed from
there.”

Thoughts?
