Hey Lac= hlan

Her= e's a couple of things to consider.  Get the Avid codec from the peopl= e you are delivering to (or find out what res they are using and download i= t yourself.  When they import it (if they do it properly) they will ge= t a fast import, which means there will be no transcoding (i.e. what you have rendered is exactly= what they will be viewing in the avid)

Also (and apologies if you already know thi= s) your background color should match the edges or your graphic.  So i= f you have a soft dropshadow, your background color should be black.  = It will look like crap in ae, but when composited in avid it will be perfec= t.
