Hi there.
Here is the first completed project shot with my nice new HV20.
Thanks to this forum I was able to have everything figured out and set to my liking almost immediately, hardly any learning curve at all!
This was shot an hour after the camera was dropped off by UPS.
My workflow was very convoluted because I had my friend (the "talent" in this video) do the editing on a mac only equipped with iMovie at the university where I work, and then needed to take it home without a portable hard drive to add some things on my PC with After Effects.
Have a look!
Camera settings:
24p, CINE Mode
Color Depth: +1
Contrast: +1
White Balance: Sunny
Exposure: Locked at 1/48 shutter and a medium-ish F-Stop then set to -1.
Workflow:
Import into iMovie HD 6 as 1080i.
edit, edit, edit.
Use iMovie "Share to Camera" to export the footage back to the HV20 as HDV.
Import using HDVSplit.
Run through the "Farnsworth" process by means of Steve Szudzik's incredibly handy HV20 Pulldown Application (http://www.szudzik.net/vegas/scripts/HV20Pulldown.html) and encoded with Lagarith.
Brought into After Effects CS3 and set as 16:9, title cards and animations added.
Exported from AE as full sized Lagarith.
Resized in VirtualDub using the Smart Resize (http://neuron2.net/resize.html) plugin (New Width: 480 x 267, Filter Mode: Precise Biliner, Letterbox Image, Frame size: 480 x 360) Video compressed with XVID, audio compressed with LAME.
This file is intended for upload to Youtube, which is why it is a 4:3 file with letterboxing.
I would like to encode Quicktime or something more compatable for the forum here, but I don't really know how, can someone point me to the best way to encode a quicktime file?
Thanks, hope you enjoy! All comments are appreciated.

PS. Some of the editing is intentionally off and awkward, we wanted it to have the appearance of a very poorly put together commercial for a local college. We know better than to cut in the middle of words ;)
