    Hello friends,

    I need to convert a sequence from FCP which is 720P60 (960×720) 23.98 into HD for Layoff – specifically it needs to be 1920×1080 59.94 fields and i guess 29.97 FPS : )

    I am fairly new to AE and have actually never had to do this before which is why i posted in the basics section…i hope this is not too easy of a question for this forum.

    If anyone can explain to me how best to do this I would greatly appreciate the help…from what I understand at this point i am meant to make a new comp which is 1920×1080 at the current frame rate of my video file (23.980 and then in the render que set it to field render (?)…the specifics of this process i am not clear on and as iam sure you all are aware there are some things one can set incorrectly.

    thank you in advance for your time

    best
    Lisa

    If you can do this within FCP via a hardware assistance then that would be ideal. Most editing cards support such conversions.

    Here’s a tutorial that describes frame rate conversion.

    It’s always best to test the procedure on a short sequence to test its accuracy. Choose a sequence with moderate amounts of movement.
