it’s the formats we need to know. How you carry it around doesn’t matter. If you’re doing consumer level stuff you don’t need top of the line anything.

I’ve had the best luck when I sit in on the session. I just go direct to HD in full HD 16:9. It ends a lot of arguments and hassles later. Just about everyone forgets that the image was shifted in transfer. It looks better, and if something is really wrong later we can always go back (though I never have). In the old days we’d even reframe super 16 and 35mm anyway to get a “better” framing, especially when we wanted to make sure the shot would work on a 4:3 broadcast.

Back up for just a second: what kind of work are you planning on doing? What’s the source (camera/format)? And what’s the output/purpose?

So what do you think, then?

Yes, are you adding a matt over a 4:3 image to make it look as if it’s a 16:9 image?

In my experience it’s much better to have them enlarge and reframe during film transfer and deliver it to you as proper HD. It’s a lot easier and will look a lot better. In one case you’re enlarging film, and the other you’re enlarging video. The film holds up better.

are there 12 channels on the deck? I don’t have SR, just plain old vanilla HDCAM. Never looked for or noticed more than 8 and the Kona card only has 8 audio I/O at least for the AES audio. I’m always using the embedded SDI audio feed so I’m not sure how many there really are. I know the HDV shows up with 16 on my system.

Hey, wait, did it work ok? I’m not in the studio.

What are the limits on Motion or Shake? It’s pretty easy in AE or Combustion. Used to rely on it a lot to do camera moves on very large stills. Smoke for Mac?

select the two parts, lock the sync ( ⌘L ), and then drag the clip into a bin. I think that works
