...format conversion for importing to AE? I would like to take several shots from a movie DVD, convert them into a video file format acceptable to After Effects CS3, bring them into AE to add a few extra effects.
I'm doing a little project, private, only for myself... a 1950s movie where several visual effects were needed but the producer ran out of budget. I have some original storyboards & thought it would be interesting to try to recreate those "missing shots". I have AE and would like to see if I could add a few matte paintings.
What is the best file format that would preserve the original video quality/imagery through the download/conversion of a DVD clip -- and then import it into AE? (I'm trying to avoid compression and information loss. Unfortunately, After Effects doesn't accept .avi files).
Thank you very much for your suggestions & help.
