  • 24P workflow question

    Posted by Gene Michael patrick on April 4, 2006 at 10:52 pm

    Hi All,

    We will be posting a show which will incorporate both 24P and NTSC 29.97 footage. The 24P footage will be shoot on DVCpro and we will be editing on FCP 5 using a Black Magic Decklink Extreme capture card and delivering to Digi-Beta for SD broadcast. Not having worked with DVCpro and FCP in the 24p environment, I have a few of questions:

    1. Do we use the DV50 NTSC 24p Capture preset for digitizing?
    2. Do we edit in a 24P sequence or 29.97?
    3. Are there any issues with pulldown when outputting to NTSC 29.97 for broadcast?

    Thanks very much for your help in advance. I appreciate it.

    Hi Dave,

    So I’m assuming my capture preset is correct. We do have a GRFX package being produced at the moment. No specifics on it at the moment. I am wondering, if we edit the sequence in a 23.98 timeline, and then nest the finished edit into a 29.97 timeline and then add GRFX, is that a viable work-around? assuming the GRFX are produced @ 2997. If not, how would you suggest removing and adding the pulldown? Anything else you can think of that we should know? Greatly appreciate your input.
