conforming 59.94 to 23.98 for multiclip
Is it possible to conform a 59.94 720p60 to 23.98720p60 ?
I’m editing a graduation video using multiclip in FCP. 2 sources are 23.98 and the other is the 59.94. As you know you can’t multiclip with that.
First I tried dvcpro frame rate converter. Wouldn’t work for some reason. I’ve used it before with firestore footage but this footage is coming from a Portable P2 Recorder.
I’ve tried Cinema tool. I conformed it to 23.98 and that gives me a nice slow motion that last about 2 hours. Can’t seem to get back to my original clip settings either. (first time using cinema tools oops)
Any recommendations?

If your video was shoot as 60p (59.98) and not 24p, which adds in duplication frames you need some heavy work done on that clip to make it look okay. Shake, Magic Bullet Frames are some things that I have used in the past. This is a slow process. The video gets every other frame is dropped and then some frames blended together. This blending is the trick. You can do it in Compressor, Motion or AfterEffects, but plugins that are designed to do this will give you a cleaner look, but you have to understand there will be blended frames so it will never be as good as true 24p footage.

and as for Cinema Tools, you should always duplicate the master clip before using CT. CT will overwrite the original.
