Hi,
=A0
I=20 normally only ever do animated video in 1080p 24 fps for web video (Vimeo,= =20 YouTube embed etc.)
=A0
Now=20 if someone tells me my video is so awesome it belongs on TV, what is the=20 simplest, best, easiest acceptable format that a TV station could accept / = work=20 with that I could export to directly from AE?

Now I am not talking about a course in video formats, let us assum= e=20 this is a guide for newbies, not someone working in broadcast, also lets as= sume=20 that it doesn=92t need to be ready to broadcast directly without preparatio= n ,=20 only a format that they would be happy to work with.
=A0
I have a guess that the popular video format of QuickTime, 1080p, 24fp= s,=20 H264 lossless is not acceptable? (would be great if it is so I don=92t have= to=20 render multiple versions).
=A0
I just want a simple answer here, not a handbook or a complicated guid= e,=20 thanks.

What is the digital format that would be best (and ideally s= mall=20 in size but =91lossless=92) that could be simply uploaded to FTP or shared = on=20 DropBox etc.
=A0
I am talking about 3 minute length of video max, so 60 to 180 seconds.= (The=20 type of video is animated cartoon type video).
=A0
Perhaps there are alternatives, but I would be happy with just the bes= t,=20 simplest, smallest, most compatible format.
=A0
Thanks in advance,
