Render normal HD. but use the crop tool. im sure other editing programs have one. movie maker probably doesnt. if ur using movie maker........stop using movie maker

well if you want to keep that 720p quality, simply just put black bars to the sides of your video..... easy, sharp.. thats what i would do

nope i use the mac equivalent...iMovie. Also guys, i know wht your saying now but isnt the squished look the whole reason you would put your vid in 4:3 in the first place? i was more asking if i should have the black lines THAT wide, or have them thinner, and how you could make them thinner. I
really appreciate the advice though lads.

Compression never looks better. Also, iMovie isn't gonna do it right for you.

No.

It would be to have a more effective fisheye look or an old school SD look
