Ok so we finished our movie for Horrorfest, but this is the first time we've ever filmed with the DVX and even the first time we've ever edited with Vegas, so needless to say this is all a wonderful learning experience.
We followed the "24p basics" thread and everything seems fine, the only trouble I have now is getting the file rendered so that everyone can actually watch the damn thing
So we rendered as an MPEG-2 and select DVD Architecht 24p Widescreen for the templates, then I go to Custom and click on the audio and render.
When we watched it the first time it dropped frames but didn't skip. It was just amazingly awkward to watch however all the sound and the cut's were on time, it just had dropped frames and was like a flipbook that was missing pages.
So we set one of the options in the Templates section to 24.00 and when we rendered the file this second time, amazingly it was perfect and exactly what we wanted.
Now we needed to burn it to a DVD to give to our composer so that he could make the soundtrack, this is where the problem set in.
The file didn't really want to be transfered to DVD and when played was back to it's old tricks of skippyness. What was even more odd was that the file had no properties other than being a media file.
Really all I need to know is what you guy's do when your 24p widesceeen project is finally finished and you want to give it out to people for viewing (Or in this case, submit it to Horrorfest so it can even be watched.)
I'd hate to of wasted all this time filming a movie for this and then be unable to submit it, so can anyone please help us out with this so that we can enter Horrorfest?
(Whoops! Look's like my partner in crime posted before me! Please disregard/delete this if it's asking the same questions, thanks)
