Hello All,
I am editing 2 :30 PSAs that were filmed with the Sony Z7U in HDV and wanted your tips on an HDV to NTSC Broadcast workflow?
After using Log and Transfer to import the footage, here are the movie specs (viewed in Quicktime's Movie Inspector):
Format: Apple HDV 1080i60, 1440 x 1080
(1888 x 1062), Millions
16-bit Integer (Big Endian), Left, 48.000 kHz
16-bit Integer (Big Endian), Right, 48.000 kHz
FPS: 29.97
Data Rate: 26.64 mbits / s
Normal Size: 1888 x 1062
--
Now, when I drop it into FCP and it auto-adjusts the sequence, here are the settings that FCP gives me:
Frame Size: 1440 x 1080
Aspect Ratio: HD (1440x1080) (16:9)
Pixel Aspect Ratio: HD (1440x1080) [Anamorphic 16:9 UNCHECKED]
Field Dominance: Upper (Odd)
Editing Timebase: 29.97
Quicktime Video Settings
Compressor: HDV 1080i60
Quality 100%
Audio 48kHz 16-bit Channel Grouped.

So what's the best way to make this look good on a Digibeta? Anybody have this workflow experience?
Much appreciated,
John
