POOR IMAGE QUALITY

HEEELLLLPPP!

I am trying to finish up a short movie in Screen BLast. It is more like a slide presentation. The images that I am using look terrible. I have been searching HI and LO looking for any info on what the image size should be. NOTHING. I figured lo res (72 dpi) but it looks like crap! I will be projecting this over a digital projector hooked up to a DVD player.

ANY and ALL help welcome....

Sincerly

DPI is meaningless in video. Don't even think about it.

The pictures should be at least as big as the frame size. For NTSC this is 655x480. You can use larger images, especially if you want to zoom in with Pan/Crop. However, if you use pictures that are too big you'll waste a lot of processing time and memory.

Are your photos showing with messed up colors, not enough sharpness and clarity, or both?
