Hey guys, as you may have read in the previous post by Matt we had some problems when we imported the footage as the first narrative part was filmed on the different camera meaning the footage was not shot in wide screen. This meant that when we added the footage to the timeline in final cut, there where black bars either side of the footage for the first narrative.
However after experimenting with changing different properties of the footage to fix this problem, we found that when we changed the scale of the footage to 103 instead of the standard 100, final cut would then take this new aspect ratio and fit it to the same size as the wide screen footage from the other camera. We exported a test shot to make sure that it would appear like this in when exported to quick time, and although the footage is stretched (to make wide screen), the stretch is barely noticeable without looking really close, and is not pixelated or distorted in anyway.
Now that we have resolved this problem we can carry on editing of our music video, so far we have just over a minute of footage editing together and synced with the music.
