Digital Scaling HDV footage
I shot some footage over the weekend on a HV20 with a Letus Mini for a student short and I told my DP to zoom into the GG a little more than what you see on the monitor to be safe. Well my DP has a problem listening (must be because of the fact that he's 4 years older) to what I say and obviously decides to zoom back out to frame his shot better. Well long behold I come home to edit and you see a black frame around the footage from the Letus Mini.
Now, the easiest way to fix this problem would be to digitally scale about 110% in Premiere but I wanted to know if this would affect the quality in the long run. I'm pretty sure I read elsewhere that if it's delivered in SD on DVD then there shouldn't be any problems? But how about future stuff, like blu-ray? Vimeo? Or should I not worry about that? My actors would cringe at the idea of a full day re-shoot but I wanted to get this short done just right. I would like to hear what other have to say. Am I being too hard on my DP? I had some other issues with him not listening (i.e. equipment, camera, and editing knowledge). It's the little things, when he doesn't listen to me, ends up biting me in the- |

You're right Rick. I am taking things a little too seriously. I guess I jumped the gun with the post after being upset at seeing the footage. I feel I do explain myself on why things should be done but he seems to not believe me. I will try to be more a of a team player and communicate more efficiently and persistently with my team. Thanks for the advice.
