24p vs 29.97 project settings for film
Hello,
This is my first post on this site and I am in desperate need of assistance. I had the college Avid tech set my project up and I’m afraid it was done wrong. I am 20 minutes into the cut and noticed a jittery motion blur effect on the images, especially the moving ones. At first I thought it was just the 28:1 ratio that I captured at and that it would be remedied by uprezing the files to 1:1. However the problem still remains. I was told it could be a cadence problem but after changing the cadence letter and batch-capturing the problem was still evident.
I shot on S16mm and telecined to Digi-beta at 29.97fps. We had high hopes of perhaps going back to film so we set up the Avid symphony project to 24p:16mm. We did not import the flex files which I think was a big mistake. The images are pulling down on the wrong frame or something and it looks horrible.
So, my question is: Is there anyway to salvage the existing sequence I have created within this project. Can I create a new project with 29.97 and batch import the sequence. I am trying to avoid re-cutting 2 weeks worth of work so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. THANK YOU…

Hmmm, I’m not familiar with film xfers at all. Try posting this over at the COW Avid forum. There’s lots of film guys who might know how to fix this. Unless, of course someone here knows about this.
