4k footage in 2k project

Hi all,
i was trieing to import some jvc 4k footage in a 2 k project.
I imported the files and so far no problem al looks great.
Then i wanted to zoom in on the 4k footage to change the shot.
That didnd work, the footage was 1920x1080 and no way i could downscale the footage.
My plan is to use a 4k camera for presentations.
i want to load the footage 2 times into a 1920x1080 timeline
1 time in a wide shot
1 time zoomed in
is there a way to do that?
for testing i used a 4k example from jvc
http://archive.org/details/4k2kJvcGy-hmq10VideoSample
when i load this in 4 k sequence its 4k
and on a 2k sequence its 1920x1080
thanks
Kevin

Here you can see the sequence and dimension of the clip
here you see the clip loaded and there is room for zoom and pan but the
footage adjusts itself to 1920x1080
here you see wat happans when i trie to move the clip
i wonder what happens here

  • 7.2.1: Can't add any new Footage to existing Project (PC)

    After updating to 7.2.1 and adding new Footage to a project, the project gets unusable. The whole project plays no sound any more. After pressing "SPACE" to play the clips I only hear a strange cracking sound and then silence.
    Anyone else with this behaviour?

    If you haven't already  cleared the cache files, I'd try that. To do so, delete all the contents of the "Media Cache" and "Media Cache Files" folders here:
    Mac: /Users/<USERNAME>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common
    Windows: c:\users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common. You should find two cache folders there. (If you can't find the AppData folder, you'll have to set Windows Explorer to show hidden files.)

    So you can ping and nslookup from your ms to these agents and vice versa right?  I wouldn't do a manual install, I would push the agent from the management server.  You can uninstall the agent manually, or use cleanmom to get rid of them.  Then
    do an install from the console.  When you initiate the install from the console (management server), should it run into any issues it will dump out an error which will give you an idea of where the problem may be.

  • Capturing lots of footage for multiple projects?

    I've got 50+ DV tapes with years worth of footage that I want to transfer to my hard disk so that I can eventually make some movies. Do I have to capture to a project in FC4? I want to transfer all the video and then pick out clips for projects as I need them. (Something like the clip browser in iMovie, but I can't stand editing in the new iMovie). My first thought was to create a single project and capture all my video there. Then when I work on a project I can just use clips from the "capture" project. Any thoughts on this approach?

    I capture all my tapes in FCE and then copy the clip files from Capture Scratch to folders on an external FW drive that is my 'video store'. (Among other things, it simplifies backing up all my source media clips.) After copying the clip files to the external drive, I delete them from Capture Scratch and I do not keep the FCE project(s) in which I capture the tapes.
    To help keep the clip files organized, I do this:
    • give each tape a unique reel number and name at the time of the shoot
    • assign the reel number & name in FCE when I capture
    • store related clip files in a folder with an appropriate name (for example, if I have 4 reels from a single shoot, I keep them together in a single folder)
    • keep a log of each tape in an Excel workbook
    When I start a real project, I can import any/all of the clip files from my external drive for any project.

  • Need change preset if adding HDV footage to SD project?

    How  do you accomplish that and what are the results to the new HDV  and the old SD footage?

    Though of no help in PrE, PrPro CS4 allows one to mix footage through different Presets for different Sequences (think mini-Projects in one major Project). Even earlier versions of PrPro could not do this, and one had to do separate Projects, as the Presets were Project-based, and not Sequence-based, though earlier versions did have Sequences.
    Good luck,

  • SD Footage in HDV Project Anyone

    has anyone here ever included *SD(720x480 DV)footage* in a *HDV project?* I have massive amounts on footage captured in SD from my Sony VX1000. I would like to move forward by editing all my projects in HDV format, which will include the DV footage. I downloaded a trial from BorisFX called "UpRez" that is supposed to take SD footage and make them work wihin the HDV format. My questions are:
    1: Has anyone used the BorisFX "UpRez" plugin and does it really work
    2: Is there a plugin bundled with FCP 6.x that does the same thiing
    3: Can a HDV project playback on a SD meduim
    4: If not can compressor "downsize" my HDV project to play back on SD mediums
    Thanks in Advance

    As far as I know in 2009 all things will be digital, not necessarily HD. But if you want to keep you HDV timeline, though I would recommend transcoding to ProRes because of HDVs long-gop, I have had some success with using Compressor to upRes SD footage to use in an HD timeline. Using the frame controls use best for the resizing filter and deinterlace filter. Be aware that this will take quite a bit of time, depending on how beefy your machine is. Although, I've only been going as far as 720p. 1080 sizes will really hinder the look of the SD footage.
    If you want to keep all you edits in HD, simply downconvert your finished edit using compressor to SD and encode your MPEG 2 files. You'll just have to decide if you want to crop the sides of your 16:9 footage to a 4:3 or letterbox the 16:9 into a 4:3 frame.
    hope this helps.

  • Using HD Footage in SD Project

    I have an old SD project for a set of video instructions that needs to be updated. Most of the old SD footage is still good, but I do need to reshoot a few scenes at the moment. I'd like to shoot the new stuff in HD and mix it in with the old SD footage. Eventually the whole thing will need to be redone in HD, and I'd like to begin accumulating HD foootage now.
    The SD footage was shot about 5 years ago with a cheap camcorder, but looks pretty good. I've experimented with a new JVC Everio 1080i camcorder that shoots crystal clear video to hard disk in AVHCD format. Whenever I view the AVHCD files the quality is great. I experimented bringing in those files into my SD project. I set the magnification so that I will keep all of the vertical resolution and lose a bit on the sides when the 16:9 video is reduced to 4:3. The video was shot so all of the action was in the middle of the frame, so I can afford to lose the sides. Since I'm reducing 1080 lines of vertical resolution to 480, I expected to have at least SD quality as a result.
    When I rendered the video, I was very surprised to see that the new HD video looks *much worse* than the old SD video. It seems that CS4 cannot de-interlace video very well. The video from the HD source are incredibly bad in quality, and the video from the cheap, 5 year old SD camcorder look great.
    I originally did these videos in Premiere Pro 1.5 and had a very easy time of it. Premiere CS4 has so far been a real disapointment. The resulting video is of very poor quality and the program crashes quite a bit, which was never a problem with 1.5.

    I've got a couple of tutorials on my web site that deal with scaling HD footage down to SD resolution.  One is about an all-CS4 workflow.  Here's a link:

  • Combining 60 fps and 24 fps footage in one project

    I've got a unique and confusing problem. I am trying to make a video that has a small amount of 60 fps played back at normal speed, soap opera effect and all, placed inside of a normal 23.976 fps project (full of primarily 23.976 fps footage).
    I can hear you asking "why on Earth would you want to do such a thing?!" The video project is actually designed to be an explanation and demonstration of why and how higher frame rates look the way they do, a sort of explainer on how our eyes and brains process them, etc., so I need a bit of shiny soap opera stuff, just not the whole vid, because yuck. 
    The final destination for this project is YouTube, which now offers 60 fps uploads, so my final export would be at 60fps. If I shoot the rest of my stuff at 23.976, how can I combine the two so the normal stuff looks normal in a 60 fps export, and the 60 fps stiff looks shiny? If I drop 23.976 into a 60 fps project/export, won't it get choppy as hell in the final export?
    I've got access to PP and AE CS6 and/or CC to get the job done.

  • How can I merge chromokey footage with another project?

    I have a project that I'm working on and want to go back in and place some green screen footage into the original project. What do I have to do to be able to use and edit the green screen footage and place it into the original footage?

    In FCPX? Just place the green screen footage over the storyline (as a connected clip) and apply the Keyer effect to the green screen footage (if the green screen is really good, you probably won't even have to make any adjustments to the keyer). You can also use the Transform parameters in the Video inspector to adjust size, positioning and orientation of the overlaid footage to fit into the storyline original.

  • Saving source footages and FCP project in EXTERNAL Hard drive

    I have ran out of space in my Inbuilt harddrive of the computer....
    Now i have got a new project to be done and i have external 1 TB hardrive.....
    So my question:
    1.) Can i save the source footages in External HD?
    2.) Can i save the project in External HD and edit it and do everything as in External HD?
    I have never done such thing so help would be acknowleged.
    Thanks and if i am missing any information then do let me know!

    Hi
    YES - BUT
    • External Hard Disk - MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted (all mine are journaled)
    • Should be FireWire or Thunderbolt - as USB/USB2 performs badly to me and especially when filling up.
    • I do - create a folder on My external HD named as Movie project + date
    - then Start FinalCut
    - AND set up ALL Scratch disks to this folder
    - then SAVE projects - and direct this to same folder
    - then I also make a folder in this project folder (on ext.HD) named material - and in this I collect all photos, audio-files (all converted to .aiff - NO .mp3 or other) AND all texts in a text document to copy from e.g. Title, contributors etc. SO also a document describing how the project is to be done - sort of synopsis.
    PROBLEM
    When changing Scratch-disks in FinalCut Express or Pro (FCP-X i don't know) one must when starting up next time - FIRST CONTROL - where they are set - as they do not orient after project but after last settings. All material and Captures etc - can be stored in a very wrong location IF one doesn't keep this in mind !
    MY OWN experience - very tedious to clean up - BUT at least FinalCut Pro can help in collecting in all parts if they go astray.

  • What to do with SD footage in HD project/sequence?

    Sometimes I work with HD footage but need to use some old archives (all PAL SD + 4/3)  too. What should I do to keep the maximum quality possible from the SD footage? Clear that they are much smaller in size and scaling it to much bigger sizes would cause serious losses. What's the best way to use SD 4/3 footage in an HD sequence (16/9 or higher)?
    Thanks, Jim.

    Another approach could be to use Neat Video - best noise reduction for digital video to reduce the noise and Red Giant - Products - Instant 4K 1.5.1 to increase the scale of the SD material.
    Be creative with that. Here is an example of old 8mm film (from 1961), digitized to SD and upscaled to 960 x 720 for inclusion in a HD project:

  • Importing DVD footage into HD project?

    I have a project shot with the Panasonic AG-HVX200 - we shot 720p 24fps. It looks great.
    I ripped a DVD and imported it, and it needs rendering and shows up as a smaller size, since it's SD footage.
    If I stretch it, it looks worse than it did to begin with.
    Since the DVD looks pretty good when you play it normally on a SD setup, why can't at least that image quality be achieved? Is it possible?
    (In case you're wondering: I ripped the DVD without compressing and it's the exact same daa that is on the DVD itself. No copy protection is a factor in this.)
    Thanks for any help and advice you can give me...

    When I captured the Digibeta, it was on a different system. It was capturing digibeta on a Avid Nitris Symphony HD using the Avid capture codecs. And it didn't look great. You could tell that it was SD right away. Grainy and pixelated. But we only needed 8 seconds (4 clips) and we treated the rest of the footage to look grainy so that it fit in better.
    I wouldn't run the footage into the HVX. Best signal you can get would be S-Video and that is a composite signal.
    Transferring to digibeta then uprezzing won't get you better quality, but worse. You will be losing a generation.
    Look...the best you are going to possibly get is the DVD rip that you stretch and render. You might try taking it to a post facility and paying tons of money to use a Terranex box, but it still won't be stellar. You have to understand how compressed DVDs are...they are HIGHLY compressed. Blowing that compression up big will not look good.

  • What is best workflow for interpret NTSC footage into PAL project?

    Premier Pro CC cutting a film for HD broadcast TV. Majority of footage shot PAL at 1080p, so I made a 1920 x 1080 25p project. Is it okay to make a progressive project for broadcast? Or should I switch to interlaced?
    I am supposed to deliver an NTSC tape to the network.
    Some footage is 29.97 and 23.97.  Is it okay to Interpret footage in bin as 25p PAL and then cut it into my sequence.  It seems to play properly; I'm just concerned about problems in the final output. I've read that people duplicate the clip, then interpret to 25fps PAL, and leave the original NTSC alone.  This sounds like a good idea. Working on a MacBook Pro Mountain Lion.
    When I output the final QT movie, what are the best settings and codec to use for the final
    Hi-Res output which I will bring on a drive to a post house to do final CC and layback to tape?
    Many thanks in advance.

  • 4k footage in 1080p project for SmoothCam

    Guys,
    I have a 4k footage 2:1 (4096x2048) which I want to use SmoothCam to smooth out some bumps. The project setting is 1080p HD. The reason for using 4k in a 1080p project is that I have a big enough picture space for SmoothCam to do rotation and translation(my final product would be BlueRay). Now the problem I'm having is that the 4K image seems to rescale and fit to the monitor window. I was hoping to have full size 4K image in 1080p monitor with much area go over the border so I can see how much I can scale down after SmoothCam has been applied.
    Does anyone know what's going on?
    Thanks.
    Shaun

    I found that I can make Video Motion scale to 100% instead of default fit to screen 43%. Answered my own question. Thanks!

  • Managing stock footage from different projects

    We're trying to figure out how to manage our stock footage. What we want to do is take stock clips out of a finished project, move them into a project that contains only stock footage, and then delete the project they originated in. That way we have all our stock footage in a single project that we can call up whenever we need to use it. Of course, we can do this manually by selecting the clips, copying them into our Stock project capture scratch and then re-connecting, but this is hugely time consuming. Any suggestions on a faster way to do this? We've thought about using Media Manager, but it seems that would only work the first time we created the Stock project. After that, with stock from other projects, it seems like we'd have to import and re-connect from whatever file Media Manger puts the clips into.

    Whoops. Didn't realize that. New forums got me all confused. Thx Tom.
