Hello all,
I have read through the forums trying to figure out the possible answers to this and I haven't found the exact answer. I have a few questions about exporting 16x9 anamorphic clips for web/computer viewing. Shooting on a XL2, editing with FC studio.
I know that anamorphic footage is 720x480 and its anamorphically squeezed in FCP or QT.
If i want to export the footage for computer with no black bars, etc- just 16x9.
i have read earlier that 854x480 is the correct largest version. But doing the math its a bit off (53.375 x53.333)
So then I saw another post his footage looked great and it was 720x405
So is there any list on any website or someone so kind to write out a few of the breakdowns for exporting 16x9? What is the first real number that i start off with to convert? 960x480?
If so the first could be x / 1.25 =768x384
Is this right?
example for 4x3 and what i am looking for in 16x9 is:
640x480 (because i am starting off with 720x480)
512x384
320x240
this may be a bit confusing, let me know if I can clairfy!
thanks
Michael
