I read a book that said to create comps at 720×540 square pixels. and work at this comp until i am finished. Then make a final comp that is 720×486 D1 pixels. And put the 720×540 square pixel comp into the 720×486 D1 pixel comp and do a “Fit to Fill.” Then when i import the movie into Avid the movie will come in looking correctly, as oppposed to circles being stretched because of the square pixel vs. non-square pixel problem.
so, i am trying to create a square pixel widescreen project. That is why I used 960×540. I thought that was 16×9 square pixel aspect ratio. am I wrong?
Also, i am using photoshop 6 for graphics, that is why i used square pixel comps.
