Thanks for the advice dave! I did try to mess around with the 3:2 pulldown in the render section of After Effects. I am really new to After Effects, so I just noticed that my output file was an animation file and not a DV NTSC file like I wanted. So that’s why it looked pixelated in the FCP sequence. However, if I created a new sequence in FCP to match those settings, then it looks perfect, BUT the DV footage is now interlaced REALLY BAD. If I try and render the title in After Effects with a compression to DV/DVCPRO NTSC, then even the actual quicktime file looks terrible, compared to the animation file. Is this just the way things go? Am I supposed to use the animation file and make my sequence match that? I’m really lost, so any help would be appreciated. This project is due in a few days, so if worse comes to worse, I’ll just use the crappy FCP titles, but I would like to have better ones.
