I'm currently editing an SD movie that was shot in 16:9 format. When I export a file from FCP to Motion for effect changes it appears in FCP in 4:3 format. It looks correct when I'm in motion, I've checked the project properties and they are correctly set to 720x480, but when I go back to FCP the entire image has been squished down to 4:3 with either black bars on the left and right or the image underneith it sticking out on the sides. If I go back into motion and set the size to 960x480 it works, but I it's a bit of a pain to do and doesn't allow me to edit something right in the middle of the shot without including the entire shot in the edit which I also try to avoid. I know I'm missing something, but I've gone through all the menus and settings I can find. Any ideas?
