- File Format: .mov or .mp4
- Dimensions: 1920x1080 (preferred) or 1280x720. Note: 16:9 and 4:3 are preferred aspect ratios. Providing alternate aspect ratios risks letterboxing, scaling and stretching of content to fit target aspect rations.
- Frame Rate: Minimum 29.97 fps (preferred) or higher.
- Bit Rate: We recommend that you restrict your video bitrate to a minimum of 24mb/s. This will help you cut down on file size, lengthy encoding, exporting and file transfer times. Bit Rate should not exceed 50mb/s.
- File must be de-Interlaced (Please, No Interlacing)
What is interlacing? -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interlaced_video
- Multi-pass encoding is recommended, but not required.
- Please export all encodes using Compressor or Quicktime. We cannot support editing program artifacts such as “edit lists” or “zero offsets” embedded in the files.
- Do not send anamorphic content. All content display and pixel aspect ratios should be the same.
- Do not include front or end slates (displaying metadata), title or end cards, bars and tones, etc.
Audio
- Format: AAC
- Channels: Stereo (L R)
- Sample Rate: 44.100 kHz

- 480p is our MINIMUM spec. Please do not deliver videos in 360p or lower.
- Please don’t encode widescreen videos so that they are letterboxed on a 4:3 frame. If that’s all you have, we’ll take it, but if you can re-encode the footage in HD (preferred) or SD 16:9, we’d really appreciate it.
