  Deinterlace

  Posted by Enzo Rocket on May 24, 2007 at 3:32 pm

  Hi,
  hoping someone can help me here. I am currently working on a SD PAL 8bit project in FCP6. We have some live action intercut with some video game footage which was captured onto digibeta and we have now laid this off as 8Bit uncompressed 4:2:2.

  The game footage has had to be scaled to 115% in order to acheive full frame height and width…

  Being pretty new to this I was wondering if I should deinterlace all the footage in FCP6 using one of the filters or go to color and deinterlace it there and then bring it back into FCP6?

  Or do i need to deinterlace it at all?

  Is there anyone out there that might be able to shed a little light on this for me and maybe a correct workflow.

  massive thanks!

  enzo.

  if you scale or move any interlaced footage it is always best to separate fields. If you don’t, and say you move the footage up 3 pixels, you’ve just reversed the field order and things will look horrible….

  ok cool, tahnks for advice.

  so from a FCP point of view I could use the deinterlace filter on each shot I wanted to scale or do I make sure I leave fields to none in the project setup? or both?
