Re: [Avid-L2] taking a feature project from 720p to 1080p (and ultimately to 2K for distribution)

 

If you simply create the 1080p project, open the bin from the 720p project with your sequence, and open that sequence, all your media will already be online, and the 720p clips will have motion adapters applied automatically to scale up. This is the easiest play, but it all depends on whether you think Avid's FrameFlex is high enough quality in comparison to other more cumbersome plans.

hi all
we have an independent feature project that we are rescuing and are looking for workflow suggestions. this material was shot almost a decade ago on P2, DVCPRO HD, 720p. to keep the footprint low we worked the material in a 720p DVCPRO HD project on our iMac system running Media Composer 7. our first cutdown shortened the project significantly, and the client wanted to somehow bring it back to feature length, so we proposed some additional scenes. these were all shot at 1080p. ultimately we want to end up with the project at 1080p. once we have it locked we thought that we would drop the 720p project into a 1080p comp and batch in the native 1080p material. i know there are myriad ways to upscale - for shorter projects i've used AE to scale using it's own algorithms and also using Boris FX's UpScale plug. this is my first big feature project with this kind of situation din thought i would ask for pointers from the list. what's your favorite workflow?
cheers
