Losing still image quality after premiere pro export

[megana29078140]

Hey, so I'm a complete novice at premiere pro and for a project at school I had to put together an animatic. It is essentially a sequence of still images, opened in photoshop they look fine. In premiere pro I had to scale the image using clip>video options>Scale to frame size. I exported the media and the .mov file had the images losing significant quality. I know there is definitely something wrong I did or didn't do in the export settings and was wondering what I could do to maximise the quality of my export/still images. Many thanks

What are the dimensions of the still images, in pixels, the Sequence Settings used to edit, and the Export settings? A screen shot of Export Settings panel if often very helpful. Most likely, the stills are much smaller than the edit/export and they were "blown up" and that is where you lost the quality - you said you had to scale images up.

Thank you

Jeff

You can also try "Set to frame size" instead of "Scale to frame size."

Thanks so much, "Set to frame size" instead of "Scale to frame size." ultimately worked . Sorry for the late feedback.

You're welcome.

A further suggestion ... create stills that are a direct multiplication of the frame-size of your sequence.

So ... a 1920x1080 sequence, make stills that are say 3840x2160 or perhaps 5760x3240, I wouldn't go larger. And definitely, as noted by Peru Bob, use "Set to frame-size" and not "Scale to ... ".

I've tried to do that the quality still the same (bad)

Been running into the same issue recently - Are there settings in the preferences of where to modify the resolution of the image exported/imported when you click the 'camera button'?
