  • Converting 30fps slo mo to stand 24p playback – Possible?

    Posted by Frank Bokoski, jr. on October 13, 2012 at 6:15 pm

    Shot with 2 HVX200s in 720P/24PN. Unfortunately one of the cams was set for 30fps (720P/24PN). Big mistake!

    So, how do I convert the 30fps slo mo footage to standard 24 for proper playback. Is this possible inside of Final Cut Pro 7? Compressor?

    Please help.

    You can change the speed of the footage to aprox 125%

    I believe in Final Cut you select your clip and go to the menu
    >Modify >Speed

    You won’t have any audio, but you should be able to sync.

    Maybe this helps? This was posted elsewhere on the Cow:

    Generally, using default methods to reduce framerate from 30 to 24fps will introduce an awkward cadence to your motion.
    I haven’t had to do this for some time, but I don’t recall there being a ‘correct’ way to do it in Premiere without a plugin.
    I always did this in AE with Twixtor. Instead of simply dropping frames it would redraw frames. I believe that AE now has this function in the default installation.
    I’d look through the After Effects archives. I think Andrew Kramer has an AE tutorial for changing framerates in AE, it might be searched by ‘frame rate’, of ‘ time remapping’ or something.

    This is the solution I’ve chosen. It’s not perfect but for my needs it will be fine.

    Thanks!!
