I see in other forums here that people have been busy doing animation, yet this forum stays so quiet. Consequently, I'm not certain if I will get more help with posting the following questions here or elsewhere, but here goes: I composited in Premiere a 2 minute 58 second animation comprised of uncompressed .tif, .tga, .fli/flc, and .avi file segments at 640X480 res. at 30 fps. I output it from Premiere in .mov format using the Sorensen codec set at 75% at 320X240 res. at 24 fps. The file came out to be over 11 megs! Worse, scenes that contained lots of composited elements (layers), such as several Poser characters, detailed Bryce background, etc., came out with ragged edges to things that moved (fairy wings, bodies, etc., all of which were animated with slow, not fast movement) as if in need of serous antialiasing. Also there were fluttery edges in places like where the characters feet met the Bryce background. However, scenes in which there were fewer elements composited (i.e., close ups with only one character's face and a Gaussian-blurred Bryce background) came out as smooth looking as the original uncompressed version. My first question is; why did the compressed file came out as described above, and is there anything I can do about it (i.e., use another of Premiere's codecs, etc.)? My second question is; does anyone know if it is possible to render an uncompressed final out of Premiere. (If so, I could then compress the file using Bink to make it smaller. If not, I am concerned that using Bink on an already compressed file will make matters worse.)
