i've made videos for a living. currently on hiatus.

the main job here is to gather the source material wherever it may be available and make it conform to your desired format.

so you need to start from the end

i.e. figure out if you're going to be projecting SD or HD or 4K then work backwards.

there are also various aspect ratios like 1.33, 1.66, 1.78, 1.85 etc (that's the shape of your frame)

always start from the end. which really is your projector. why make a 4K widescreen movie if it's going out through an old VGA port with on a 4x3 screen.

as for free open source clips you might want to start here:

i can send you pointers if you wanna do the labor
