I don't know about the T2i, but you can take 16:9 pictures in camera with the T3i.

[quote] I compared Repelling Spider's picture's in his production video with the ones in his Picnic video. It seems that he didn't crop his pictures. Is there any other option besides cropping.
[/quote]

He took the pictures with the Canon EOS Utility program, put the pictures into WLMM and set it to 16:9 aspect ratio. He might not do that anymore, but that's what he has done. So, whatever pictures you take, put em into WLMM and set it to 16:9 aspect ratio.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[well you can just shoot in the aspect ratio if your camera lets you (that what i do then i crop it to make it look cinematic depending on the type of video) another option that i see used a lot (too much) is just streaching the image but i do [i][b]NOT[/b][/i] recommend it so im gonna go ahead and say cropping is your best bet]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Yep, he nailed it. 
Although some animators crop to image to 16:9, and then add black bars at the top and bottom to simulate a 1:2.35 ratio film in a 16:9 viewer. (RP does that a lot.)]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[RP and MonsieurCaron's films are in 16:9, what I'm guessing, and RP correct me if I'm wrong, they shoot at a 3:2 aspect ratio, and then crop the shot to 16:9 in post. This is common practice in the brickfilming community, as the Canon T2i and T3i, the most common DSLRs used for brickfilming, don't have the option to shoot photos at 16:9.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[There are black bars on the sides of my videos. My pictures are in a 3:2 aspect ratio. When I upload my videos to YouTube which has an aspect ratio of 16:9, the black bars appear. I saw other animators like Repelling Spider and MonsieurCaron do not have this problem event though they shoot at a 3:2 aspect ratio too. I hope to hear from you if you can provide some advice on how to fix this problem without cropping pictures. Thanks :)]]></content>
