“Film Look”??
If you want “Film Look”, shoot on film.
Ask ten videographers to define “Film Look” and you will get 15 answers – no two alike.
If you can shoot, edit and deliver in progressive, then that’s the recommended workflow.

i always shot in pal 25fps and delivered in 25 fps …
but does it give that organic look to your video…
i know i should have filmed it before in 24 fps… but now am asking for your advise…..coz there are lot of dream shots and scenes so i thought the t.v channel will like it …its just my thinking or does it make a difference in 25 fps or in 23.976 fps… thanks lot for quick response ….

A little bit off topic, but I shoot in HDV and deliver in DVD (SD). The reason I do this is HDV captures at a rate of 25 mbps, and SD only captures at 8 mbps. With that extra data, you can do pan and crops of the digital video of around 15-20% without significant loss in quality.
Plus, if you add FX to DV footage such as color correction and contrast adjustments, my understanding is that they can actually degrade the image slightly. For that reason I always shoot in HDV or HD, and then deliver to DVD using the SVP DVDA render template.
Personally, I find DV footage on DVD looks muddier and murkier when compared to a DVD made from an HDV source. The HDV source looks crisper. If I need to deliver to blu-ray, there is very little I need to change.
Perhaps the reason why you don’t mind the DV look is because it is closer to the film look you are after.

i agree with you..but i did down conversion with hdv footage to a DVD it looked horrible compared to SD delivered to DVD….. or maybe i did something wrong with the setting……

DVD is SD. Shooting HD and going to SD requires rescaling of the video.
I get pretty good results shooting 720 30p or 24p for DVD. Deinterlacing interlaced video is not something I would do. The standard DVD spec for 29.97 is interlaced.Bob

Probably.
But this is the third variation of your question, so I’m not sure what you are really asking.
First question was interlacing.
Second was 24 v 25 FPS.
Now you’re asking about HDV v DV.If you have three questions, then start three threads. You’ll get much better response from forum users.

In my defence (and Vicky’s), I did start out by saying I was going A little bit off topic… .
