![]() I choose to use APR422 because it meshes with some older workflow stuff, but DNxHD (Avid’s) is also a fine alternative.įor me, transcoding to a “mezzanine” codec (if you will) makes a lot of sense when (1) there is a lot of footage and (2) there is more than 1 difference between them.įor example, yesterday I received footage from an AG-HVX200 and an AG-AF100.ĪG-HVX200: DVCPROHD 1280×1080 (1.5) 29.97Īnother consideration, previously not mentioned, is that some codecs are Long GOP and some are Intraframe, so those two cameras also differ there (DVCPROHD is intraframe AVCHD is Long GOP). Just to break it down a bit more, the stuff above is: Codec Name image size (pixel aspect ratio) frame rate. In that case, edit as 1080 to keep the max quality all the way to Blu-ray, the 720p clips will upscale well enough. ![]() Say you have the same 1080p and 720p clips and want to go to Blu-ray, and MOST of the clips are 1080 and just a few are 720. Edit all clips in a 720p sequence, then export to MPEG-2 DVD Widescreen Progressive. Does not make sense then to bump the 720p to 1080 as that will degrade the quality a bit, when delivering as SD anyway. Mac or PC? Resolution and frame rate of clips being used? And destination – web, DVD, Blu-ray? These are all factors in deciding what workflow to use.Īs an example, let’s say you have 1080p30 and 720p30 clips, and want to deliver as DVD. If your footage is 720p30 or 720p60 or SD for example, it would not make sense to go to 1080p24 – that frame rate can look choppy and may not suit the content. Please share, what types of footage are you currently working with? If you right-click on a clip in the Project Bin, it will tell you frame size and frame rate. I’d absolutely love some advice here, as it’s quite discouraging me from moving forward at all! I thought maybe I could make each type of video their own sequence because they are meant to just go one after another anyway, but I can’t figure out how to match the original sequence’s settings, and of course they won’t conform to the settings of the final sequence.īah, I’ve just got no idea. What’s worse is that I am trying to combine two different video sources, so even if the sequence can fit one sort of video, it won’t fit the other kind. I thought that I could zoom the video in and out using effects to correct this, but it seems like I can’t- the rest of the frame is just gone. I can’t really figure out how to do it manually- so what ends up happening is any video I add to the sequence is zoomed in, the size of the frame is incorrect. I notice that with Premiere, only sometimes when I add video to the sequence for the first time, it’ll ask if I want to change the sequence’s settings to match the video I’m using. I am not new to editing, but new to perhaps advanced techniques. ![]() Hey, new to COW, and new to Adobe Premiere.
