Does anyone know what the industry animation standard for height and width of renderings for wide screen TV (16:9) and full screen (4:3) is?

also the resolution setting.

I have been using 640 X 480  for full screen with 72.00 resolution at best rendering setting, Raytracing on and I do not get the same quality.

Thanks.
Pappy

Try this... and the basic is 96 DPI

The standard is whatever the market will bear.  Take into account the hardware your audience will be using to view the animation with.

If anyone is interested in this topic, the Wikipedia GKDantas suggested has all the information I was curious about and more.

A very valuable asset for all animaters.

For the Carrara animations I create for our company training DVDs I render to the 720p size
and then when I edit it in the final video it's squezed to 720x480.
I like to render frames in the photoshop format for the great alpha channel
