Sell it as something to show the potential of the animators involved in the project, try and get intrest from lighthearted animation companys such as CBBC, Bluezoo, Aardman, The Mill. we can also market the films potential to more serious company's such as Framestore and Cinesite, we are selling ourselves as animators rather than selling our idea.

1.3 HD Settings
High Definition Format
All material delivered for UK HD TV transmission must be:
x 1920 x 1080 pixels in an aspect ratio of 16:9
x 25 frames per second (50 fields) interlaced - now known as 1080i/25.
x colour sub-sampled at a ratio of 4:2:2
The HD format is fully specified in ITU-R BT.709-5 Part 2
1.3 Sound Quality
Sound must be recorded with appropriately placed microphones, giving minimum background noise and
without peak distortion.
The audio must be free of spurious signals such as clicks, noise, hum and any analogue distortion.
The audio must be reasonably continuous and smoothly mixed and edited.
Audio levels must be appropriate to the scene portrayed and dynamic range must not be excessive. They
must be suitable for the whole range of domestic listening situations.
Stereo audio must be appropriately balanced and free from phase differences which cause audible
cancellation in mono.
The audio must not show dynamic and/or frequency response artefacts as a result of the action of noise
1.4 Tolerance of out of gamut signals
In practice it is difficult to avoid generating signals slightly outside this range, and it is considered
reasonable to allow a small tolerance, which has been defined as follows under EBU Rec103:
x RGB components must be between -5 % and 105% (-35 and 735mV)
therefore
x Luminance (Y) must be between -1% and 103% (-7mV and 721mV)
Slight transient overshoots and undershoots may be filtered out before measuring, and an error will only
be registered where the out of gamut signals total at least 1% of picture area. Many monitoring devices
are designed to detect errors to this specification.
1.5 ‘Blanking’
HD images must fill the active picture area (1920 x 1080 pixels). No ‘blanking errors’ are permitted on new,
up-converted, or archive material.
However a two pixel tolerance will be permitted during CG or complex overlay sequences where key signals,
graphic overlays or other effects do not fully cover the background image. Where animated key signals or
overlays cause moving highlights at the edge of the active image it is preferable to blank these pixels
completely. A note of the timecodes and reasons for these errors should accompany the delivered
programme.
