Note: before producing a video production, make sure that all of your video clips have the same interlacing format. This is an extremely important step to take before production, as it can drastically affect final video quality. If you produce your video and find the video quality unsatisfactory, verify if the interlacing format of all of your video clips is the same. If your clips have different interlacing formats, set them all to the same format, then produce your video again. For more information, see Setting TV (Video Clip Interlacing) Format.

In the Produce File window, select the production option that matches the task you want to perform. You can select one of the following production options:
