i’m dying for a solution to this. same deal here…
transcoded w/ redrushes, now we’re stuck…

really? nobody? there are a few threads like this so it seems like a problem many are having.
I really don’t want to have to use crimson for this conform when we’re supposed to be able to do this all from within final cut now.

Interviews are being shot standard-def, the subject matter (loosely) is “webcams” so the quality doesn’t need to be great here (the idea of up-rezing a 320×240 seemed overkill).
However, yes, capturing the screen at a standard-def size seems absurd, so I guess I’ll go with this… it’s just mixing matching and mashing formats that’s a bit of a put-off to me.
Thanks for your replies, Shane

Do you then just import this into fcp and toss this into an SD timeline? Or are you HD?
My main concern is just making sure it looks right in SD. Capturing at 1280 sounds good, as it would give me ample zoom wiggle room.
Closest I can get on the macbook display is 1280×800. Does that sound right?

for this exact thing in my project I’ve been doing the 4-point garbage matte on a copy of the clip layered right over the original, then tossing a blur filter on the matte. haven’t tried the shape idea, seems like it may cut a considerable amount of steps out of the process.
