720p/24p for film transfer workflow
hello!
we’ll be editing a full length feature that i think was shot using p2 with a 720p/24p setting for cinema release.
it is to my understanding that 720p/24p setting has 29.97 fps…and since film is 24 fps, do we have to do frame rate conversion?
i usually edit 720p/24pN for cinema release using AXP and if ever, this will be the first time that I’ll handle a project with 720p/24p setting using Media Composer…
and if we have to do frame rate conversion, what would you recommend: edit the whole feature first on a 29.97 project and then apply frame rate conversion OR apply frame rate conversion first on the master clips to be able to work on a 23.976 project?
or is there a different workflow for this that i should know…?
thank you for your help! 🙂

You could process the files through this: https://www.dvfilm.com/MXFX/index.htm
before editorial to return to your 720p/24pN that you are used to. It will maintain a higher quality image than trying to undo it later from a sequence with broken cadences at every edit.Michael
