Reproducing reframes from a higher resolution timeline

[Joe Riggs]

If you did your reframes on a native 5k timeline, is there some calculation that could be applied to determine the exact number to digitally pan or tilt to reproduce it on a 2k or HD timeline.


For example lets say in the 5K timeline you scaled the image by 20% and panned it to the right by 100 pixels. Is there a way to accurately replicate it in HD timeline via a math formula of some kind so you can just plug in numbers instead of eye balling it?

Yes on all of this, but you need to do the math for the specific situation and uses you have in mind.

Thanks, what's the equation to get the correct numbers?

I have a 5K sequence (5120 x 2160), that I'm taking into 2K Scope (2046 x 858)

Just multiply everything by the difference which in this case (2046/5120) = .3996

So a 100% scale becomes a 39.96% scale. A position of 500 = 500 * .3996 = 199.8 (Also don't forget to scale your anchor points).
