    Select the clip in the Project window and press Command F (mac) or Control F (pc) to open the Interpret Footage dialog box. Here you can choose to separate the fields. There is no deinterlace function as there is in Photoshop.

    It’s important to recognise the distinction between Interpreting fields and deinterlacing. John’s post refers to interpreting, which means that AE will in effect deinterlace footage while still honouring the two fields. That means that if you are RENDERING fields as well, you won’t deinterlace your footage at all. The first field of your output will contain the first field info from your interpreted footage, the second output field will contain info from the second interpreted field.

    To truly deinterlace the footage, options are:

    1 – Interpret fields, render frames. (Not often an option).

    2 – Deinterlace footage first in NLE

    3 – Download the free plugins from Pete Warden, which includes a deinterlace filter.

    4 – Check out Magic Bullet Suite, the best deinterlacing software ever (for a steep price!)

    All of these work well indeed. But recently I’ve been using Avisynth, yup, it’s free. do a search on google and you can do deinterlacing and 60i to 24p and rezising with no fuss. It`s extremely fast. I hope you can use it.
