I recently made a cartoon that mixes anime studio animation with machinima.

I recorded the video game using an HD PVR. It saved the video into an MP4. Then I meshed all of the machinima together using a video editing tool. I output the file as an MP4 and imputed it into Anime Studio. After created the animations I exported the final product as a MOV. Then I put it back into the video editing software to add the Machinima preroll and postroll.
I am kind of sad that the machinima quality seemed to decrease after all the converting and saving. Is there any tips?
