1 video...2 different aspect ratios

Postby -MD » Mon Jul 23, 2007 9:59 pm

I want to do this video with multiple sources and I found that half of my sources are 4:3 and the other 16:9....I want the video to be in 16:3 but....I really want to use the 4:3 sources......so is it ok if I make them all 16:9 :?

A smart editing program like Magix Video Editor or Avid Xpress could ease your life up but perhaps they are out of question here. I would recommend you to crop the sections from 16:9 videos that you don't require. Resizing 4:3 for 16:9 or vice versa is not a good idea. I know that will double the time of your video editing but the end result will be so good, you'll be happy you went for the fuss. Once you get around some editing, you'll find better ways to cropping 16:9 for 4:3 videos or vice versa, if you know what I mean :roll: .

to me it depends on what you have more of: if more of your sources are widescreen then make them all widescreen, if more are full then make them full

ect... but really it depends on how much detail you are willing to lose

Well, I am not willing to loose too much detail because the amv has alil to do with beauty. And all of the shots I am going for are the best I could find out of my library. But yea I had an Idea that would require to do abunch of cropping in multiple places so...on top of thatI have the exact same amount of 4:3 sources as 16:9...so I will probably try going with the widescreen deal. :)
