Hello, I have a scanned image at 300dpi that looks good when I open its .psd. I create a new NTSC D1 video preset... I've tried it both at 72 dpi and 300dpi. Anytime I bring the image into my video comp, the edges are a bit jagged... it's like it loses its anti-aliasing or something (this...

Hi all, This may be a dumb question... I have been working on a project in After Effects CS3 with tons of photoshop layers in a high resolution (probably higher than I should be working). I figured when I was ready to render, I could precompose everything into one layer, change my composition...

Hey all, I'm about to tear my hair out on this... I can't figure out what the problem is. I scanned in drawings in photoshop, masked off separate layers to animate, saved as .psd's, then imported the layers as compositions in AE CS3. Everything has been working great. Well, I did a little work...

Hey guys, This is a short film we shot a few months back and I'm in the final stages of finishing it up. There is a couple of Boards of Canada tracks right now, but that is only to convey mood as example for the guy creating the music tracks... so that won't be in there in the end. Anyways...

Hey all, This is similar to a problem below, except a bit different... I was hoping someone had a good workflow for this as I haven't been able to find much... Editing 720p footage in FCP 6 with DVCPRO HD codec in a 24p timeline. Export sequence to compressor 2. Choose DVD best quality 90...

I have a weird question and probably a kind of stupid one. I spent tons of hours editing in FCP 6, then decided to create a new sequence to try my hand at a different edit. I forgot to set the new sequence to 720HD24p, so my sequence was set up for NTSC... I couldn't figure out why some clips...

Hey all, I wonder if someone can help me here. I exported a 720 lossless clip from FCP to send to After Effects for post work. In AE, composition is set up for 960 x 720 frame. Pixel Aspect ratio is DVCPRO HD 720 1.33, 16:9 aspect. I export clip after post from AE to .mov... aspect still set at...

Hey all, Bought P2 Log pro the other day because FCP wouldn't import half of my files. I don't mind P2 Log, but I'm going through multiple steps I'm assuming I probably don't need to. Instead of saving a new volume with the files I export, is there a way to just export an .mxf to a quicktime...

I have been using Log and Transfer to log my p2 files we shot this past weekend on the HVX. After I have the ones logged I want to keep, I select those clips and drag them to my bin. The problem is, only about half of those clips show up in the bin. The ones that don't show up, I can watch them...

Anyone in the Kansas City, Mo. area that has a Brevis set up and adjusted for the HVX and some lenses that would be willing to rent it out this weekend for a shoot? Thank you! Brad Hodgson

I need one scene created for a short film. It's fairly involved, but I'd pay for it. I need a 16:9 scene created, shot from high in the air, angled down, on a house. The house needs to look hidden, behind some dead trees, or destructed buildings or something. It is daytime, but the sky is a sick...

Hey there, This is a short I did for school recently. Minor sound things to fix, and maybe an edit or two, but this is basically the final film. If this doesn't qualify for this forum let me know and I can move it to the DVX forum. Thanks for watching! Camera - DVX100b with RedRock M2 Budget...

Hey all, I have a question... I am planning on shooting a short this upcoming semester for school. I am planning on keying out the background behind a front porch. The film is set in the distant future, and I want the background to be barren, dead, rocky, etc. No real greenery or life. Maybe a...

Hey all, I still have my Cartoni Focus tripod for sale. This exact system: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/366495-REG/Cartoni_F101_F101_Focus_Aluminum_Tripod.html I paid $1300 for it... I'll sell it for $900. It's in basically perfect condition. Let me know if you are interested...

I hate to do this... but all in one day, I had my car break-down, a collection notice for medical bills, an expensive vet bill, etc. I'm a married full time student and I just have no other way of taking care of these financial obligations. So, unfortunately, I'm going to sell my gear...
