  • combining frame rates to a smooth project

    Posted by Alex Bowes on December 8, 2007 at 9:37 pm

    So shot a project recently and have run into a problem with editing and exporting. Shot half of it in HD at 23.98 fps and shot the other half on black and white film, which was then digitally transferred at 29.98. Now when edited together in FCP the timeline plays just fine, but when exported using compressor or quicktime the black and white shots seem jumpy almost if there are dropped frames. Can anyone help?

    Use Cinema Tools to remove the pulldown from your telecined footage.

    What was the frame rate that the film was shot at and what are the sequence settings you’re using? If 23.98, might try removing the pulldown in the film transfer… it’s probably 2:3:2:3 if you shot 24fps.
