Can you describe the spatial ordering of fields in NTSC and PAL?
3.
Define pull-down.
4.
List some of the audio file formats you can use in Shake and what you can do with them.
5.
How do you change the timing of an audio file?
Answers
1.
Each frame of video is made up of two separate subframes called fields.
2.
For NTSC, the spatial field order starts with field 2, the even-number field. For PAL, it is the opposite: field 1, the odd field, is the first spatial field.
3.
Pull-down is a technique to temporally convert film footage to video footage and back again.
4.
Shake can read AIFF and WAV files, mix them together, extract curves based on an audio waveform, manipulate the timing of the sound, and save out the files again.
5.
You can change the timing of an audio file by first making sure that it is selected in the Audio Panel and then adjusting the Time Shift parameter.
