Video Quality
Posted: Fri Mar 05, 2010 2:00 pm
I have separated each scene into different project files for the project I am working on now. I am getting to the point that I need to export each scene and import them into the full movie project.
I have been playing around for several days with different types of output and testing them on a tv to see the quality. I think I am just confusing myself.
When this movie is finished it will be played on a larger sized screen at a convention and there could be some DVD distribution.
What I am looking for is the best quality (or best suggestion) I can get for the larger screens like at the convention. I went through Steve's ADVANCED OUTPUT OPTIONS IN PREMIERE ELEMENTS 7. I am also trying to recall this from several days ago when I was doing the testing. I would just like some kind of confirmation on my selections. I have two questions.
1. What file type should I export each scene? I know it should be AVI but I don't want to do the uncompresssed because the file size will just be too large. From what I remember there is MS DV-AVI and MS AVI, or something like that? I want something where the quality is below uncompressed but high enough to play my intended target?
2. What type of field should it be? Since the intended target is not on a computer, should it be left at Lower Field First? Plus it should not be Deinterlaced, correct?
