24p vs. 30p vs. 60p Questions
-
In my experience, it is effective to do the following in order to conform your 60fps media for slow motion. First, Cinema Tools is the app that I use to prepare anything that I shoot into slow motion. To do that with EX1 footage, I first have to save the quicktime VBR clip (variable bit rate) to a CBR clip (constant bit rate). That can be done in quicktime pro, or in compressor. Once that’s done, each of your EX1 converted clips can be opened in Cinema Tools and conformed to either 24 fps – extremely slow motion, or 30 fps – smooth slow motion.
Otherwise, you will see what you mentioned early on in this thread, that it all looks like it’s in real-time, albeit smooth. The rest of the deal about why mix frame rates, or the idea that it all depends on what your goal is – that’s the thing; I can think of many reasons that I’ll shoot different frame rates for a single project. FCP is really good about that, and you grow when you’re thinking outside of the box, or outside of “that’s what everybody else does…” type constraints. If your work looks good, you know it, and so will everyone else.

EX1 slowdowns in cinema tools is something many here ask about.
I myself have problems grasping cinematools.
Maybe you could do the Cow a big favour and post an easy tutorial with some screenshots?

Arnljot – let me look around on COW to make sure this isn’t already covered, for example in the Final Cut Studio 2 forum (assuming there is one). If there isn’t anything yet, I’d be happy to. Thanks -s
