Hello Everyone,
So you all helped me find the camera and get started (thank you!!). I've shot (what I believe are) some pretty amazing timelapses in America's best National Parks. I am now working in AfterEffects ( I hope I can mention that program here with out any haters:) to render the RAW files out to video.
I really have no idea what codecs are all about, but I need to render them out to a video file that is good for DVD (final use) and also some web stuff. Is it possible to use one video file that will be okay for both? Do I need to do one render for DVD and another for Web?
What's an easy codec for Vegas/ Adobe Programs that I will need to use a bit (like Premier) to read and work with?
It says AVI is loss-less so I am thinking that is best but am worried about file size ( I am going to have a lot of files) and having enough storage. I ran into a problem a few years back where Cineform files were just too big.
Last thing I will add is that this I am trying to do this project as close to professional quality as possible. It will be projected in HD around the world and I need it to be as best as I can but with in the constraints of what's realistic for my workflow.
Thanks so much everyone for any help.
Joshua
