Re: Ideas / suggestions? /
Perhaps your Hi-8 cameraman was onto something....
In the early 80's, musician/producer Brian Eno made a number of "video art"
pieces that he shot in the "vertical format" (rooftops, beach scenes, female body
builders) He said that he hated tape drop-outs, and felt that this format made
them look like raindrops.... and he was right!

I had a friend bring in a home video to edit for a project he is working on.
It was shot with a Sony Hi-8 (home user model #?) As I was digitizing it I
noticed that the majority of the footage was shot sideways. The guy behind
the camera told him that the editor could fix it.
I know I can rotate it in After Effects and resize it but I am talking about
20 minutes worth of footage here. I looked for away to rotate it in Xpress
2.2 but could only get it to flip - flop or just flip!
Is there any suggestions? I finally suggested that I go with him to
re-shoot the film.
Any hints and ideas are appreciated.
