Hello,
I'm fairly new to the filmmaking industry so I would really appreciate if anyone can help me solve my confusion!!
I had a question about matching the video specs for a digital billboard. I need to get a 15 second commercial spot into a digital billboard in my local town and their specs to meet are as follows:
Composition Size: High Definition (HD) 432 x 252
Color Mode: RGB
Resolution: 72 dpi - 300 dpi
Pixel Aspect Ratio: Square
Recommended Static File Format: JPEG
Other Acceptable Static Formats: BMP, GIF/GIFF, PNG
Recommended Animated File Format: AVI (compressed with XVID)
Other Acceptable Animated Formats: SWF (Versions 6 through 9), MOV (compressed with H.264)
Video Frame Rate: 30 fps
Video Color Depth: 24 bit RGB
Video Bit Rate: +9000
Here are my questions:
1) What is composition size?
2) Are there any of these specs I MUST consider before shooting? For example, it shows Video Frame Rate is 30fps. Must I film at 30 fps?
3) What is Video Bit Rate?
4) Can I match these specs in Final Cut Pro X when exporting?
5) I am filming with a GH5s. Is this camera compatible with these specs?
I am embarrassed to say that I am extremely clueless to these things. I am really hoping I can gain some insight from you guys. Thank you!
