I completely understand.
For print work, I did a lot of that with either Save_As, or Save_As_a_Copy in Photoshop. Then, they added Layer Comps, and that cut down on the work, but allowed me to have several "treatments."
Have not used that in PrPro though. I see the usefulness of the feature though.
Yeah, clients are fond of saying, "really appreciate you following all of my ideas, but I think I like what you had last week better... Can we go with it, but with these few extra changes?" Happens all too frequently. Lot easier now, than back in the old days, when one painted the cyc, set up the shot, and lit it, only to have the AD change the color of the cyc. When done, they'd often say, "liked that original color better. Let's tear it all down and re-paint to that." Now, I just change the color of the background digitally - a lot less painting!!!"
Thanks for that tip,

  • What's the best setting for iPhone 4s video in Final Cut Pro 6

    What's the best project setting in Final Cut Studio 2 for iPhone 4S 1080p footage?

    Hi,
        Convert your clips to Pro Res (LT if you have FCP7) with MPEG streamclip or similar and import to FCP.
    Drag the first clip to the timeline and click ""yes" on the message that asks if you want to "change sequence settings to match clip settings". You're all set to edit.

  • What's the best setting for a best shades quality?

    Hi!
    I would like to know what are the best codec and the best setting for a video with 1920x1080 of resolution.
    I've tried them all but nothing because the shades...are not shades.
    I want a video that is like a uncompressed video but lighter. Same quality, same shades.
    I've tried with Canopus Lossless but the video is darker and huge (7 min for >17 gb),
    then with Canopus HQ, same quality but a little bit lighter (6 gb),
    I've tried with all of codecs and settings but I haven't found what I want.
    Who can help me for the best settings for the best shades?
    Thanks so much.
    P.S: Sorry for my english!

    I used the PNG codec but the video is too big.
    New Question:  I've tried to encode the video with Canopus HQ but to 720p and now the video is more lighter, I wanted to upload it on YouTube but is not compatible with the standards.
    If I encode this video by changeing the codec to Microsoft Avi uncompressed, can I have the same quality and the same weight?

  • What is the best setting for export movie in widescreen format?

    Please tell me what is the best setting for exporting movie in Widescreen format?

    Like in After effect we use "NTSC D1 Widescreen Square Pixel".,
    Carefully examine the codec and pixel dimensions of that output file. That's certainly easy for an experienced VFX person like yourself.
    Then carefully look over the presets in FCP to find the same attibutes. You can also use the online help system for FCP and search for "D1"
    However, your question remains unanswerable because we don't know how you're getting to the monitor. What are you playing back you AE sequences on that displays them on your LCD? You're assuming we know what you're doing and, I assure you, we do not.

  • Best notebook for editing HD videos?

    I consider to buy a MacBookPro or MacBookAir. Which one is the best choice for editing HD videos?

    You don't want a MacBook Air, a 13" or a 2.0 Ghz 15" for professional work.
    You need the 2.2 Ghz 15" anti-glare, high res, MacBook Pro or better. (has the 1GB Radeon 6750M)
    The 17" is prefered because it's screen is 1920 x 1200, so 1080i (1920 x 1080 pixels) is WYSIWYG.
    You need the anti-glare because your going to be using it for professional work in many environments that you can't control the glare, you need to be able to see the entire screen.
    If your ordering online, get the 7,200 RPM drive. Else it's not that much difference from the 5,400 RPM store sold models. Get the 8GB of RAM installed right when you purchase and also AppleCare.
    Good luck.

  • What will be the best strategy for encoding performance ?

    Hi to all.
    As I am a rooky with Premier Element 11, I comes to you all to get your feedback with your configuration choice.
    My PC is a self made choice:
    CPU is Intel Core i7 3770K - 3.5Ghz
    GPU is a GeForce GTX 660 OC 2Go or ATI HD 5870
    RAM is 16 Go (2x8Go) gskill PC3-10700  (2400 Mhz)
    Motherboard is Asus P8Z77-V Pro
    SSD is a Samsung Pro 256Go  defines as the system (C:\)
    Premiere Element is installed on it.
    What would you do if you have the choice to buy 1 or 2 HDD 1To SATA III 64Mo (6 Gbit/s)  ?
    I would like to know where I should put the following files in order to get the best performance to encode a movie in full HD.   
    - Movie source files
    - Premiere Element Temp Files
    - Output (final movie file)
    Thanks for your idears

    The tradition with HDDs is to spread them out on multiple drives to prevent input/output drive bottlenecks.  All of the article in the Adobe libraries (that I've found) are aimed at users with workstations that have multiple hard drives and various backup systems.  Few articles have mentioned SSDs as apparently they have not been considered trustworthy. 
    I have a new ASUS i7 laptop and am very happy creating a new folder for each project and putting everything in that folder.  I create the folder, put copies of the media I plan to use in it, start a new project and double check in preferences that scratch disks are all set for "same as project".
    Since I use the SSD as the work drive, my HDD is for storage and less significant software installations.  At 7200 RPM it is relatively fast, but not that important for they way I manage video projects. 
    At output I get near 1:1 render times, unless there is significant use of effects and multiple video tracks. 
    The laptop has a 7200 RPM HDD.  I tried various suggestions for spreading out the source, temp and output files and got no noticeable improvements in performance.  So, if you choose to manage projects like I do, it does not matter much what HDD you buy.
    When a project is complete I move the entire folder to another drive for storage and back that up on yet another drive.  If I want to work on a project, I can move the entire folder back to the SSD.  I find it very convenient.

  • What is the best setting for compressing to a Window Media Player?

    I now have the latest Compressor, just now need to figure out which is the best setting to use for compressing to a Windows Media Player. Does anyone know which is the best method?

    I'd propose you buy a licence for Telestreams FLip4MAC (flipfactory) Quicktime components to enable ENCODING for HD and SD as you need. It works ok however none of my work requires specifics for windows player. I have a licence just the same.
    If you have Flip4mac already installed, you can use the system preferneces  panel to order a an ENCODER component licence. There may be others around as well.
    You can just use compressor.app and change the inspector video to use "quicktime components/windows media encoder" in the batch job.. its pretty easy.

  • Best setting for export to web

    I want to upload videos to the web.  Some will be to youtube and I assume that the export to youtube format is best for that.  But Youtube degrades the image resolution a lot.  Is there a way to minimize that?
    Also, if I upload to my own site what would the best settings be assuming I shot the video in the highest resolution setting?
    Thanks

    The YouTube presets built into Premiere Pro CS5 were designed with YouTube and do not require any transcoding once they've been uploaded to YouTube.  Most video that you send up there gets transcoded by them into their file format.  This usually results in pixelated output that is what you're trying to avoid...
    Other than that, try to stick to H.264 for encoding whenever possible and higher bit rate.  Knowing how your video is going to be presented is really the key.
    Basic things to consider are:
    Total available bandwidth
    frame size
    frame rate
    amount of motion/action in the scene or video
    In the end, I will say that creating good output is still more art than science as there are a lot of variables.  Do some research  on the subject and I know that it will result in better video for you.
    Hope this helps,
    Dennis

  • Need best setting for 1920x1080 compression.

    I'm looking for an appropriate setting to use in Final Cut Pro X's Share > (Compressor options) menu wherein 1920 x 1080 content can maintain its pixel count/dimensions but be greatly reduced in filesize for playback on common computer apps: MPlayer, Quicktime.
    I would like a, say, 20-minute piece to take 1.5 GB or so (flexible in this regard, just trying to have a more portable file than the 20+ GB output I get from Share > Export Media > Current Settings.)  Can't find a preset which does this. Can anyone help?
    Thanks in advance!

    John,
    You're going to need a low bit rate-friendly codec – namely h.264. There are a number of pre-sets you could work with…for example, start with the 1080 pre set in video sharing, which uses h.264 - then go into the encoding tab > video settings and adjust the bit rate. You might start with a rate of 10,000 kb/s and then look at the inspector summary to see what the estimated file size is.
    Preview will give you an idea of how it will look. If the file size is about right, take a short, representative piece of your movie by setting in and out points in Preview and doing a test encode. Play it in QT Player to see whether it meets your needs. If it does, do the whole encode.
    Good luck.

  • Best setting for export to revver/youtube/vimeo

    Hey,
    I've been trying all different settings and i still haven't been able to find the combination that makes for good quality video on sites such as revver/youtube/vimeo. I've tried all types of tutes online but none seem to work for me. I know theres a youtube setting but most people seem to say this is exports too small a size.
    Any suggestions? Thanks

    I'm not familiar with revver. YouTube is not up to the quality of Vimeo. I suggest exporting for Vimeo, using the suggested settings on the Vimeo site. Use that same file for uploading to YouTube/revver.
    To give you an example of the quality you can achieve on Vimeo, here is a clip I posted. The source material was 4:3 DV in a 16:9 SD project, encoded to 1280x720 (Vimeo HD) WMV with 2-pass unconstrained VBR with target bitrate at 5500 Mbps and audio at 128 Kbps.

    Even on YouTube it looks decent.

  • Best setting for my set of devices

    I would like to know what would be the best settings to get the maximum throughput for my set of devices.
    Last night both Airport Extreme and Airport Express were updated with firmware to 7.5.2
    1) Upstairs I have an Airport Extreme. Newer version with 2.4gz and 5ghz bands. This is connected to my AT&T Uverse router/modem. My iMac is ethernet connected to the Airport. Running speed tests I get almost the expected speeds of 12mbs download and 1.5mbs upload.
    I had setup a 2.4ghz network and a 5ghz network but may not have used the best settings for my environment.
    2) Downstairs is an Airport Express. I is a "n" version
    3) Connected to the Airport Express via ethernet is a small ethernet hub and connected to that are 2 Dishnetwork 722 DVRs. Each 722 has a Sling Adapter to allow viewing the contents over the internet via iPhone, iPad or web browser. This was the goal for the Express, to supply that info.
    Getting max speed out of this Express is important to get the DVRs output out of my house and to my iPad or iPhone.
    4) These are the following devices that are connecting at the house via wifi:
    a) iPhone 4
    b) iPhone 3g
    c) Apple TV newest model and is downstairs next to the Airport Express
    d) iPad
    e) Macbook Air first generation and this is used downstairs in the same room as the Airport Express
    Using Airport Utility it appears that all devices show 80211.n and 5ghz except the iphone 3G, which shows 802.11 b/g AND shows it attached to the Airport Express even when I'm next to the Extreme.
    From the Airport Utility, I've seen the values fluctuate but here is what shows Signal, Rate and Noise for each device as a snapshot on the Airport Extreme
    iPhone 4 -44, -96, 65
    Airport Express -59, -96, 144
    Apple TV -70, -96, 52
    iPad -50, -96, 65
    Macbook Air -24, -96, 216
    Using the Airport Utility, the Airport express show these values
    iPhone 3G -66, -85, 54
    Airport Extreme -54, -86 104
    Let me know if you need any other details.

    Any advice on the best Airport Utility settings for the Extreme and the Express?
    The default settings work very well, so unless you have a specific reason to change them, I would stay with those settings
    Should the Express extend a network or join a network?
    "Extend" provides more wireless coverage in the area where the Express is located. "Join" provides better bandwidth if you are using only for iTunes, etc. Most users want more wireless coverage.
    If I were to extend at network, should the Express extend to the 5ghz or the 2.4ghz
    If you have good signal strength at the location of the Express, 5 GHz will support up to 270 Mbps bandwidth. 2.4 GHz will support up to 130 Mbps. You want as much bandwidth as you can get for high definition video performance if you are using wireless. If you have an option to connect the DVRs using ethernet, that will provide the best performance.
    The iPhone would have to connect back to your main router if you set the Express up for 5 GHz. It is not easy to extend 5 GHz. You literally have to have very close to a line of sight situation between the main router and the Express for this to work.
    If I were to get another Extreme, should it join or extend the network on the Extreme upstairs.
    The Extreme does not really do anything if you set it up to "join". The ethernet ports are not active. All you would be able to do with the device in this setting is attach a printer or hard drive to the USB port.
    Any documents that would explain the best choices for linking 2 Extremes together?
    Apple AirPort Networks is a very good guide.
    If you are linking two routers together, an ethernet connection is always the "best" way to do this because it provides maximum bandwidth performance. Up to 1000Mbps with ethernet. "Extending" using wireless only can work well if the "extending" AirPort receives a very strong wireless signal. Ideally, there would be a line-of-sight situation between the devices or close to that ideal.
