Broadcast Television - Best specs to supply news footage We are preparing a bunch of 10secs video bites that we hope to be picked up by news media outlets as supplemental footage for news reports.

Could anyone suggest the best specs to export the clips as before sending the links to download in our media release?

Was thinking a ProRes plus a high bitrate MP4 might suit?
ABC, NBC, Comcast and others all have their own specs. What I've found is that 1080 progressive MP4 (h.264) at 29.97 fps (some rare cases need 59.94), with audio between 192-256 Kbps, usually does the trick. You'd obviously edit in ProRes, but to submit that codec to the stations is overkill. Some outlets will even reject specs that don't conform exactly to their specifications during the upload process to their FTP.
