..maybe it would help to back up here and have someone offer a proven process flow.
Here are the constants:
Source footage: 1080p (1920 x 1080) Apple ProRez 422
Now, let’s assume I was at the first stage of designing my animation.
What comp size should I start with?
Should I be adding motion blurs to the layers that are moving? (note: I have worked in after effects for years now and have rarely used motion blur on simple linear moves)
Ok..now I’m done building animation: on to the render.
Final will be delivered for use within FCP (I do not have FCP on my system so no corresponding codecs available)
What should Render Settings be?
I’m obviously missing some basic step/information in my process and hope that someone can clarify how they build animation with similar footage.
Many thanks…
