  • can’t remove 3:2 pulldown

    Posted by Tom Schmidt on August 25, 2008 at 11:43 pm

    I have several individual 1280×720 HD shots @ 59.94fps, that I need to rotoscope and add FX to.

    They were originally shot at 24p.

    However, After Effects can’t seem to guess the pulldown, and I can’t do it manually with the various pulldown schemes.

    (I verified that the footage does have 3:2 pulldown, by stepping thru it.)

    It’s very weird. It just doesn’t seem to want to come out. Them’s some stubborn redundant frames.

    Found a MUCH easier solution:

    Take the 59.94 footage into a 23.976 comp.

    Presto. No pulldown.

    When all is said, done and After Effected, render it back out at 59.94.
