This week in my workshop I was told that our projects need to be set to HD widescreen so that they will be able to be viewed at the exhibition. I wish I had known this from the beginning as I am now worried about the first scenes I have made showing Rosie sitting down at her laptop and creating a profile page on a social networking site as I cannot just change the ratio as nothing will fit. Hopefully I will not have to redo these scenes, my tutor has said we can change it in Premier, this stretches it all so that it should become HD and widescreen without any of the work needing to be redone. This is something I keep worrying about but as I plan on now cutting this bit down into quick shots of what is going on I will not convert it yet.
The scenes where Rosie is sat in bed on her laptop are just photos that have been edited and then placed into the Flash project and resized. I have now created a new Flash project which I have altered the properties of the stage so that it is now the correct size. I have then gone through importing each of the images onto the stage and resizing them again so that they are all HD and widescreen in size.
Below is a screenshot of the project set at the standard size which is 24 frames per second and 550 pixels by 400.
The screenshot below is the new project in HD. I have changed the settings to 25 frames per second and to 1920 pixels by 1080. As you can see the stage has become a lot bigger which means it will play better when projected onto a bigger screen. I then imported each image again and scaled it down to the size of the stage, this was not a great change from its original image size now that the stage is larger.
