  • 30FPS on a 24FPS timeline & Still Import question

    Posted by Ted Sikora on May 25, 2006 at 3:08 pm

    Is there a way to shoot 30 progressive frames and then bring that into a 24 frame timeline without the 24FPS timeline crunching the footage as soon as it’s imported?

    I’m doing this to avoid renting the DVCPRO 50 deck to the tune of $700 bucks. I have a one minute sequence and I shot in 24PA, so I’m manually deleting the junk frame. (It won’t interpret the footage to ‘remove pulldown’ for whatever reason – I’ve searched high and low for that issue as well)

    I can make this work by exporting the 30 fps timeline as still frames, and then import them into the 24 frame timeline, but is there a way to have FCP bring in the frames defaulted as “Anamorphic?” Or is there a way to change all the frames to anamorphic at once? I’m doing this a frame at a time and it seems there must be a better way.
