Hi Folks,
I'm somewhat new to the forum, so please accept my apology in advance if this question is not in the correct category.
I'm editing a feature film using Avid Liquid. I desire the final product to be in a letterboxed 2.35:1 aspect ratio. My camera is a native 4:3, so i put guides over my LCD during filming. Now in post my dilemma is this; how do i obtain my desired look? Do I crop it? Apply some sort of widescreen matte?
FYI: The widescreen matte is in reference to an option that comes with Final Cut where you can simply specify your aspect ratio, and plop the matte on your timeline. I'm not sure how I can do the same in Avid...can anyone help?
