I've designed this ad for the South West 4 after party

http://northform.co.uk/work/dontstay...tboxbanner.htm

They want me to do a version of it they can play on the massive screens on the night but I dunno what resolution to do it in and how high I can go with it still running smoothly seeing as it'll having massive bitmaps chunking about the place.

Problem is I only gave the guys this banner ad about two hours ago and they need the big screen conversion sending back tonight.

So.... if anyone can assist then nows the time!

You would have to do it in after effects (preferred) or directory (though I am not positive about it. Won't work in flash - you can't get high enough quality for broadcast video.

Unless they are LCD projectors running off of a computer, in which case do it in flash and bump up size and resolution of your files in photoshop (150dpi).

For those sizes tweening the animation in frames might not work to well, you might have to program the bounce effects and such in AS (if you are not already).

Cheers.

Nice one! I'm a big Sasha/Digweed fan from my clubbing days in the early-mid 90's. What resolution / solution did you end up using?
