Best workflow to export to flash

Hi
I currently export 10 bit uncompressed quicktime file then convert to flash using adobe flash converter where I adjust frame size. Is this the right way to go about it or are there other settings that give better results.
Many Thanks
Adrian

Hi again,
exporting as uncompressed does not increase quality, it does increase the file size and becomes less manageable. If your flash converter can read the format you originally edited then export as QT movie self contained or reference (self contained unchecked) then encode that.
Remember that Flash latest version supports H.264, which is simply perfect for the web.

Best workflow to export multiple AE clips to Premiere CS6

Hi,
Adobe After Effects CS6
Premiere Pro CS6
Creative 6 Master Collection also.
I have multiple clips that I have improved in After Effects. What do you suggest is the best workflow to get these clips back into my Premiere sequence?
thank you,
Robert

You can open the AE comps in Premiere via Dynamic link or you can use the AE Render Queue to render the individual clips.

Best workflow for exporting clips

Hello.
I have an hour long video that needs to be cut and exported as 40 individual QT movies. What is the best way to do this? I have set markers at all the points that need to be cut. How can I highlight between markers and then export that area as an individual clip.
Thanks in advance

By setting the work area and only exporting the work area instead of the sequence.

Best Workflow to Export as 720X1280 (Portrait)

Please pardon my lack of experience with FCPX.
I capture a lot of video with my iPhone 4 in portrait mode 720X1280, so the video appears tall and narrow. I want to edit the video in FCPX and export the final movie as a Quicktime Movie retaining the same 720X1280. Actually I'm having trouble importing as 720X1280, because FCPX only allows 1280X720. I could rotate the video 90 degrees while editing and export it as 1280X720 and then rotate it in the new quicktime player, but is this the only way? Or I could probably use compressor to customize a 720X1280. I was just hoping that FCPX would have something more simple to export this way and not have to utilize compressor.
Thanks in advance

There may be a way to do this. Could you send me a small video of the video to tvpro at me dot com, or post it on the Internet somewhere that it can be downloaded.

Why jpeg file exported from Aperture with 300 dpi's it opens with 72 dpi's on PS ( image size)? I've tried several combinations and all give different results. And I am confused on what is the best workflow for me.

Ok.
My workflow is
RAW > Aperture Library > export jpeg high resolution 300 dpi's > one file on PS > edit > Save us jpeg. The I realised that files from PS were being save in a smaller size from the ones exported form Aperture. That is when I went o see <image size> on PS and files were with 72.
Since ten I've trying different things
1. Aperture > export as PSD > open on PS > edit > Save us jpeg = small file (around 15 MB)
2. Aperture > export as jpeg high resolution 300 dpi's > open on PS > CHANGE dpi's to 300 on <image size> edit > Save us jpeg = big file (Huge, actually)
What am I doing wrong? Would someone give me guidance and tell me what is the best workflow, considering I edit photos to deliver to my clients and I shall give them 300 dpi's.
Thank you

Best export for flash video

I have completed an edit of a 7 minute teaser for a feature film and need to export it to be displayed online in a flash player. The footage is HD 1080i, 29.97fps and edited in the Animation coded. My experience with best exports for flash conversion is very limited so please bare with with.
1) Is it possible to export directly from FCP to a flash file? If yes, would that be a good idea, or should I use third party softwares for better results?
2) Which third party softwares are recommended for flash conversion? And what export compression should I use in FCP for best flash conversion results?
3) Any other tips and tricks to get the best quality for flash video display?
Any help would obviously be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

When I have quality HD video that I want to export for flash, I compress it with h.264 codec. Then, with the new version of Flash, you can swap out the .mp4 extension for .f4v and your good to go in Flash. Quality looks pretty good at a fraction of the file size.

Workflow and settings for best quality .png export

I need to export a vector image to a .png for use on Retina display devices. What is the workflow and settings for exporting that results in the best possible quality .png image?

The workflow I used to produce the previously posted image on a WIndows 7 PC:
File>Export>Set "Save As" type to PNG
Upon pressing the "Save" button a PNG Options window will appear.
Resolution: Screen (72 ppi)
Anti-Aliasing: Type Optimized (Hinting)
I contacted Adobe support and they told me that the only way to export .png is via "Export" or "Save For Web".
"Save For Web" is designed to compress and I wanted to avoid that to ensure retina display quality.
I chose 72 ppi instead of a higher setting (support suggested I use 300 ppi) because Apple retina displays do not recognize ppi above 72.
The Anti-Aliasing setting was my default and I read somewhere that this was the best for getting crisp edges on retina displays (Sorry, I cant recall the source)
My concerns are that the export and anti-aliasing make larger files and I'm not convinced they are noticably better quality than "Save For Web".
Also, it's worth noting that the support was clearly reading from a reference guide. It was not a "real" expert that could explain the best workflow.

What is the best workflow procedure for importing DV SP 16x9 footage into FCP7 and then exporting the best quality 16x9 to standard DVD so that it looks great (or at least good) on a 50" Samsung LCD TV ?????? Please help! anybody?? Thanks!

We are using a Sony HDV-Z7U camera for acquisition. We recently recorded an event using the camera's non HD capabilities. We set the camera to record "DV SP" 16x9 settings on both Mini-DV tape and CF card.
To import the DV SP footage into FCP7 we chose the "DV NTSC anamorphic" setting in the log and transfer settings window. After a successful transfer from the CF card (the CF card held approximately 83 minutes) we checked the size of the file and found it to be 16 Gigs! Why so big? An 83 miniDV tape shot in SD should easily fit on a standard 4.7 gig MPEG2 DVD.
We need to burn DVDs of this show - we sent it to compressor and got horrible quality.
What is the best setting to use in FCP7's log and transfer settings window to import DV SP 16x9 standard def. footage and what is the best method for exporting for outputting this footage to DVD that preserves the original quality of the DV SP footage?? Anyone? Many thanks

> Why so big? An 83 miniDV tape shot in SD should easily fit on a standard 4.7 gig MPEG2 DVD.
No it doesn't. DV is 13GB per hour.
In any case, a Video DVD uses the MPEG 2 codec, not DV.
>What is the best setting to use in FCP7's log and transfer settings window to import DV SP 16x9 standard def.
DV NTSC anamorphic.
>what is the best method for exporting for outputting this footage to DVD...
Use the Compressor DVD preset "Best Quality 90 mins".
>...that preserves the original quality of the DV SP footage?
Not going to happen, you are compressing by a factor of 1:4. Shooting as HDV would have given you better quality material to start with. DV is at the bottom end of the scale.

Best Workflow; HD to YouTube, iPhone, and DVD?

Hi there. I'm currently editing a four and a half minute video in Final Cut Pro, which was shot on HDV 1080i, 30fps. To review my work, I've been exporting the timeline using the Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) 1440x1080 30p 48kHz setting. This creates a very beautiful, clear looking file, albeit a little large (roughly 4.5GB).
I am going to need to export my video to three places; YouTube, iPhone, and burn on DVD. I was wondering what the best workflow for each of these you recommend.
I'm completely unsure about YouTube, though I imagine for iPhone I could take the 4.5GB Quicktime file in Quicktime and do a File->Export using the Movie to iPhone setting. This would theoretically create the best quality file for iPhone, correct?
Further, I know I could use Compressor to create .m2v file ready to burn on DVD using DVD Studio Pro, but what settings do you recommend? Since the video is so short, I would want the maximum bitrate, but don't want to set it so high that some DVD players can't play it. Thanks SO much in advance!

I do basically the same thing you do, except at 24p instead of 30. My workflow for going to Youtube uses a pair of custom-crafted Compressor presets. First, I scale my ProRes 422 HQ reference movie down to 640x360, still in ProRes, with frame controls on. This gives me a really good downrez.
Then I encode the resulting downrez to H.264 at 20 Mbps, with AAC audio at 256 Kbps. (Sometimes I have to tweak the bit rate of the picture to keep it under Youtube's one-gig hard ceiling. I recommend BitRate Pro for this; it lets you calculate the bit rate needed to encode a show of arbitrary length to a file under one gigabyte.) This is the file I upload, on the theory that giving them all the bits possible will result in the best possible final encode to Flash.
The last step in my workflow is to stab the person who wanted me to deliver via Youtube.

How do you improve quality of QuickTime movie exported from Flash?

Hi
I have designed a Flash animation for a client who has asked me to also provide it in a format which can be used in a film he wants to produce in Apple Final Cut Pro. I assumed the best format would be QuickTime but whenever I export the Flash file in to QuickTime the quality of the film is awful - the graphics leave fragments of themselves behind as they move (if that makes sense?!) and the overall quality isn't very crisp.
I have tried various export settings and followed a few tutorials online but still having no success! If anyone can make any suggestions I would really appreciate it or is there even another file format that can be used with Final Cut Pro?
Thanks for your advice!!

Whenever I export an animation out for video, I always export it uncompressed. It gives a very large file, but then you don't have to worry about it getting compressed multiple times (as the video will be compressed when completed), and I have not had any problems with it.
If you are still having problems with QT export - I have heard reports that setting a time in the export (stop after X time, rather than stop at last frame) will get rid of it.
And, if you still have problems exporting to QT, then I suggest exporting to AVI and converting to MOV with a separate tool.

Aspect Ratio issues getting 16:9 to look right, what is the best workflow?

Hi all,
I am having trouble getting my 16:9 footage to look right when I export, especially when playing on DVD. I shot the footage with a Sony HDR-HC1 which apparently shoots in 16:9 anamorphic. Originally when I imported the footage it appeared it the FCP viewer and canvas in 4:3 letterboxed form, the image did not look squeezed or stretched but appeared with black stripes on top and bottom.
I have tried several experiments with exporting this footage to dvd with the following results:
Using Compressor with 4:3 setting in export:
DVD Studio Pro track settings to 16:9 looks extra squashed vertically
DVDSP track settings to 4:3 image looks in proper aspect ratio but displays with black stripes on all 4 sides.
Using Compressor with 16:9 settings in export gives the same results.
In conclusion, if it appears in 4:3 letterbox in FCP viewer and canvas there is no way to get it to export and display in DVD with proper 16:9 aspect ratio.
I have also done some experimenting with re-capturing some of the footage from the tape.
For one sequence I recaptured the footage and it displayed in 4:3 without the letterboxed effect (filling the whole screen) but appeared squeezed, I am guessing that this is because of the anamorphic nature in which my camera captures the footage. No pixels were missing. In the FCP viewer and canvas it looked squeezed and did not display in the correct aspect ratio, however when it was exported via Compressor in 4:3 and then in DVDSP Track Settings put to 16:9 Letterboxed, it is displayed perfectly (letterboxed vertically, the image filling the width of the screen without the extra stripes on the sides).
So I thought that I had my solution here, although that did involve re-digitizing and batch capturing all 18 tapes used in the project, so its not exactly a quick fix.
This is where it gets a bit confusing. In order to understand where I had originally gone wrong in my workflow I did some more experiments, this time with the settings on the camera (which I use for a deck in batch capturing). I found the function on the camera where you can set the "TV Type" to either 16:9 or 4:3. I switched the TV Type to 4:3 and when batching it went back to the original letterboxed look (in the batch preview screen that you see while capturing), however when put into the viewer and canvas it was too letterboxed and looked squashed vertically. So then I switched back to TV Type 16:9, now it looks 4:3 squeezed in the batch preview screen (no letterboxing, no missing pixels), however when it goes into the viewer and canvas it becomes letterboxed like the original footage that I had described earlier.
So now even though I have switched the camera back to its original settings it will not display in that 4:3 squeezed look in FCP viewer and canvas.
So after all that my main questions are, in 16:9 can I view it in the FCP viewer and canvas in its correct (anamorphically converted) aspect ratio and still export it without the black bars on all sides?
(The FCP canvas seems to only display in 4:3)
If not, what setting do I need to capture in FCP in the 4:3 squeezed look I have described earlier?
(This is the only setting that I have found that displays properly when anamorphically stretched via DVDSP)
I know that this is a long essay so thanks for making it this far. I have spent weeks experimenting trying to find the best solution so please help me if you know how! I will be very appreciative.
Thanks
Liam

Hi there,
I am not sure if it is necessarily a bug, but its a matter of understanding all of the settings needed. I had the same problems for a while but after a fair bit of trial and error have found some workable settings.
It probably has more to do with the export settings rather than what viewer options have selected (I don't think that viewer settings affect your export).
What program are you using to export?
I am using compressor to export with aspect ration set to automatic 16:9. Then use DVDSP with the track set to 16:9 letterbox, it seems to export to DVD with the correct aspect ratio that way.
I am having trouble with the image strobing, looks like some kind of interlacing problem, but at least I have got it in the right aspect ratio.
Its typical video, solve one problem and it just creates another.
I am yet to find the absolute best workflow.
In response to Andy above, the original letterboxed footage probably did have something to do with the downconverting settings on the camera, as when I import without downconverting it does not letterbox. In the HDR-HC1 there is an option in the menu called "TV Type" with options of 4:3 or 16:9. I was reviewing my footage on a 4:3 television so I most likely had it set to 4:3 which created the letterboxing in the viewer when I then imported the footage.
Importing the footage in HDV solves the issue of aspect ratio, but creates a new problem with the image strobing.
I hope this was some kind of help to you.

Best workflow using DNG files from Odyssey 7Q in Premiere 8.1

Finally, the magenta highlights issue has been fixed in this new 8.1 version of Premiere - lovely! :-)
I'm wondering though, what the best workflow is when using 2K/4K raw dng image sequences from the Odyssey7Q? In this case, shot on the Sony FS700.
Is there a simple and easy way to batch import a bunch of clips?
The behavior of the Media Browser in Premiere is a little different than the last version... When you choose the individual dng clip folders it now shows one single dng sequence files instead of a bunch of individual png images. But you still have to browse to each clip folder and choose the dng sequence file. If you just choose the root that contains the clip folders or if you choose multiple clip folders, it will import the content of those folders as individual dng image files! Pretty annoying...
Does anyone know of a better way to import where you don't have to choose each clip manually?
Also, how do you bring a PP edit sequence into AE for ACR processing? You can't copy/paste the files and you can't choose "Replace With After Effects Composition" - those two methods will just import one single DNG frame into AE.
You can import a whole PP project into AE but that will just show the entire PP sequence as one single file. You can't access the individual clips or open it in ACR.
The best method I know of is export all the DNG sequences as proxies, edit the material using the proxies on PP timeline, copy/paste that into an AE comp and then manually replace each of the used proxy files with the original DNG files, which will open up the ACR. But that's a bit of a hassle...
Is there any way of taking advantage of the full dynamic range of the DNG files in Premiere? When I bring down and overexposed image using either fast color correction or by right-clicking on a clip and choosing "source settings..." and using the exposure slider, the image looks "flat" but when I do the same thing using the ACR, I can reintroduce the details otherwise lost in the overexposure.
Any info or advice on this will be greatly appreciated

Hi EyelightKasper,
See if this method will work for you: Re: How to import multiple DNG files into Premiere
Thanks!

Hallo Mylenium,
Du hast absolut Recht! Meine Anfrage war derart allgemein, dass Niemand damit etwas anfangen konnte. Ich habe das Problem mit dem Adobe-Chat lösen können, es hatte mit meiner AMD-Grafikkarte und einem anderen AMD-Gerät zu tun, deren Treiber aktualisiert werden mussten! Das nächste mal werde ich mich deutlicher zu verstehen geben;-)

Best practice for exporting a dps folio so a third party can work on it?

Hi All,
Keen for some thoughts on the best practice for exporting a dps folio, indd files, links and all, so a third party can carry on the work. Is their a better alternative to packaging each individual indd file and sharing the folio through adobe?
I know there have been similar questions here in the past, but the last (that i've found) was updated mid 2011 and I was wondering if their have been any improvements to this seemingly backwards workflow since then.
Thanks in advance!

Nothing better than packaging them and using Dropbox to share. I caution you
on one thing as far as packaging:
