    1080p/30 rushes – setting in Avid

    Posted by Virginia Lemonnier on April 8, 2013 at 1:36 pm

    Hi,

    I ve got 1080p/30 rushes but I am not sure which settings is the most suited to create my project. Should I set it as 1080p/23.97 or 24 or 29.97 .

    Any recommendations/

    Cheers

    Well..the number after the “1080p” tells you what to use. 1080p30 is 30fps, running at 29.97. So you use those settings. 1080p24 would be where you’d use 23.98 (or 24 if you are doing a film out).

    Cheers,

    I actually will ingest it at 59.94, it’s documentary for TV.

    For the name of the poster, it looks that she is in Pal land.
    30p is strange choice.

    Yes, your Project should be 29.97

    1080i59.94…is 29.97fps. The “i” means INTERLACED, and the number that follows indicates FIELDS per second. 2 fields per frame…29.97fps.

    Only 720p59.94 is 60fps.

    But, since you shot 1080p30…29.97 is a good thing.
