resizing, scaling footage

[nick fernley]

I've just imported a movie into a Windows Movie Maker project (XP) which
was recorded in landscape format. The muppet operating the digital
camera (me) recorded the footage on its side! So, I apply a 'rotate 90'
transition which gets the clip the right way up, but it's rotated the
clip disproportionately, that's to say the imagery looks stretched when
played back. I now want to resize, stretch, scale the footage so that
the proportions of the clip are correct.

I welcome your feedback. Regards, Nick

You need to use something like Virtual Dub.... link on the Setup > Other
Software page of my site.... to resize/reshape/crop as needed. Then bring
the clip back into MM2.

You may like to use my pan zoom effects for MM2. One of these called "Pan
Portrait Down" was designed especially for this purpose.
