Okay, technically to make widescreen videos, you need to have widescreen source.
End of Evangelion is a non-standard, widescreen movie. If you took most any regular anime series and tried to make it wide screen either you'll have to distort the picture or add horitizontal black bars to the bottom.
You can add horizontal bars by making a B&W with a black bar on the top and a black bar on the bottom, then place it on the top most track for the entire project length. In transperancy, either choose Chroma and pick the white middle or if you exported it from something like Premiere it probably has a alpha channel, so you could choose that.
Other options include. VirtualDub has a clip and crop feature. TMPEG has a letterbox feature as well.
I would only add letterboxing if it's required.
