LO3: Export File Types:

Film:

For the product to be able to be put onto the big screen on a film. I will need to export the final product as first a PNG sequence so that I can get the highest quality footage to use. I would then take the png sequence into premiere pro to turn the PNGs into a raw file format which I could then use the colour data to edit the final video to get the result that I want. For example using colour grading as well as exposure and contrast sliders to make th footage appear the way that I want. I would then export the final product as a RAW.AVI file format which keeps all of the colour and does not compress any of the footage this is the equivalent of using a lossless file format. The only issue with this method is that the file size will be massive as I am taking an image sequence and then comping the lossless images together with no compression.

Tv:

For the product to be exported and then played on Tv I will follow most of the steps from before by using a PNG sequence to render and then taking the footage into Premiere Pro to add any final adjustments to the scene. Once I have done this is will be exporting the footage as a NTSC compatible format. This will allow the video to be played on almost any Tv that uses NTSC. Increasing the range for devices that can play the video. The one disadvantage is that the file size is again very large because of the use of no compression.

Youtube/Web:

Finally for the product to be able to be exported onto the Web/Youtube I will be rendering the project as an H.264 or mk4 video format this will slightly compress the footage but I will still be able to edit the footage in any editing software changing colours etc. I will then once again export the footage straight to youtube or an Mov (movie file) I can either upload the final footage to youtube or anywhere else on the web. The only issue is that the video will lose some quality because of the compression applied but the file size will be much smaller.
