  • Another 1080p to 1080i question

    Posted by Noelle Bye on September 5, 2014 at 5:58 pm

    On a tight deadline and not sure how to proceed:

    I accidentally shot two scenes of a feature that just got picked up for distro in 1080i60, and most of the film is in 1080p24. I know there have been posts on here about this same subject — how to convert 1080i to 1080p — but most of them are several years old and I was wondering if there were any newer techniques for making this frame rate conversion and deinterlacing my footage — is there anything I can do that will keep the distributor happy and keep these scenes intact in the final film?

    Any help is GREATLY appreciated! Thanks!!

    short of going to a professional service or buying a teranex hardware conversion box, this is the only one you can buy and use yourself all in one go.

    other plugins deinterlace 60i to 30p but you need 60i to 24p. As long as your shutter speed was 2x framerate, magic bullet should look really good.

    other methods albeit lower quality are: deinterlace(tons of them out there), to get 30p, then optical flow with timewarp, fcp compressor, twixtor down to 24p.
