Re: [Frameworks] Super 8 digitized and flagged at avi.18fps Hi Kevin, I would use ProRES HQ. Although the source material is in DV, you will find, surprisingly enough, that although ProRES can’t “improve” the image that is already there, it actually does make the image look better, by not requiring it to be compressed over and over and over again on all your steps – thus not having a soft image throughout all your steps. Alternatively I would convert it to uncompressed if you’d rather, SD files are pretty small, so uncompressed might be your best bet. Either PRORES or Uncompressed will let you edit natively then export to whatever you’d like. The benefit with going to one of these is that any effects you add (cropping, colour correction) will be applied using a less lossey codec and improve the way the correction is applied to the image. Good luck, Deco On 12/22/11 4:31 PM, "Kevin Timmins" <[email protected]> wrote: Hi, I just got my digitized super 8 footage back from blue cine tech set at .avi flagget 18fps. I need to edit it in a timeline at 25fps to match my DV footage. So I need to run it through compressor and change the frame rate. I was wondering what's the best codec to use? In the info of the super 8 mov file it says DV so should I use the DV-PAL codec in compressor or another? I hear the apple pro res 442 is it? Is another good possibility. I want it to be as close as possible to the footage they sent back. All I need to do is change the frame rate. I'll have to mince the whole project back through compressor again when it's all finished and edited for export to the web at H.264. Thanks in advance for any suggestions! Really appreciate any help!
