Hi there! I hope this isn't off topic.

I'm a newbie to Firefly in the literal sense... about three weeks ago my roommate exposed me to this awesome series and I loved it so much I went out and bought the DVDs and watched it again.

I even made a Firefly music video in Premiere... which leads me to my question... I've never used live action footage before (I've made animated music videos but not live action) and I'm having trouble with the aspect ratio. Does anyone know how to export this thing so that they don't all look really skinny? I would like to share the video with the community, but until I figure this out I can't. O_O

Thank you muchly for any help you can provide.

~Marie

Not sure about using Premiere...I've been using Windows Movie Maker to create all my stuff and it's worked really well.

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Just wanted to welcome you to the site Spacefille. Great to have you with us.

Can't wait to see your video when it is done.

You might want to check the aspect ratio, see if it's condensing the image to fit a specific screen size.

Other than that, no idea.

Depending on the original aspect of the source material either go for a 4:3 or a 16:9. I'm not familiar with Premiere settings though.

Wonderful vid! I have to admit that is not one of my favorite songs but it works quite well for this vid.

This was such a great vid. Very sharp editing, good scenes chosen, and it was just plain fun. I laughed at the whole thing--the men of FF. The song fit perfectly!

Thank you! You must make more...~grin~

Bravo!
