Tips for creating video for mobile devices

You can export a sequence for use on Apple iPods, 3GPP cell phones, Sony PSPs, or other mobile devices. In Export Settings, select an H.264
format preset made for the target device.

FAQ: "How do I export a movie for YouTube, Vimeo, iPad, iPhone, Apple TV?”

You can use Device Central to preview how a movie will appear on a wide variety of mobile devices.

Moving assets between Adobe Premiere Pro and Adobe Flash

In Adobe Premiere Pro, you can add Flash cue point markers to a timeline. Flash cue point markers serve as cue points in a rich media
application. There are two types of cue point markers: event and navigational cue point markers. You can use navigational cue point markers to
navigate to different sections of FLV and F4V files, and to trigger the display of onscreen texts. You can use event cue point markers for triggering
action scripts at specified times in FLV and F4V files.

You can export a movie from Adobe Premiere Pro directly into the FLV and F4V formats. You can choose from severalExport Settings presets.
These presets balance file size against audio and video quality to achieve the bit rate needed for any target audience or device. If you export the
movie with an alpha channel, you can use the movie easily used as a layer in a rich media project.

You can import the FLV or F4V file into Adobe Flash. Flash reads sequence markers as navigational or event cue points. In Flash, you can also
customize the interface that surrounds your video.

Alternatively, you can use Flash to create animations for use in movies. You can create an animation in Flash. You can export the animation as an
FLV or F4V file. Then, you can import the FLV or F4V file into Adobe Premiere Pro for editing. In Adobe Premiere Pro, for example, you could add
titles or mix the animation with other video sources.

Tips for creating FLV and F4V files

Follow these guidelines to deliver the best possible FLV or F4V files:

Work with video in the native format of your project until your final output

If you convert a precompressed digital video format into another compressed format such as the FLV or F4V format, the previous encoder can
introduce video noise. The first compressor already applied its encoding algorithm to the video, reducing its quality, frame size, and frame rate.
That compression could have introduced digital artifacts: noise. This noise affects the final encoding process, and a higher data rate is often
required to encode a good-quality file.

Strive for simplicity

Avoid elaborate transitions—they don’t compress well and can make your final compressed video look “chunky” during the change. Hard cuts
compress better than dissolves.

Know your audience data rate
